The riverside walk along the Spree provides the spine
of the entire park and links its two parts. Along the
Spreewiesen, the embankments and meadows on
the Spree, a four-row avenue is developed with the
help of different species of trees. The rows then
dissolve into a more informal arrangement of trees.
The species richness of the tree stock was designed
in the sense of a specific garden typology, that of an
arboretum. The existing collection of plants was
spatially condensed into thematic plant exhibitions.
The oval clusters of trees are composed of several
individuals of a plant species each – Aceretum,
Moretum, Magnolietum, Prunetum – in order to
create live herbaria. A co-ordinated play of
blossoms, leaves, and autumnal hues, of scents and
fruits, of leaf textures and trunk structures evoke the
changing moods of the seasons.
The staggering of the tree clusters is typologically
based on variety, contrast, and surprise to suggest
an exactly defined landscape that may actually be
walked on.
