Villa Saroli Park is a small botanical jewel in the heart of Lugano, creating a place of beauty with a wide range of flora. The orangerie has many south-facing arched windows completely smothered in evergreen jasmine. The park itself is full of wonderful trees such as the evergreen magnolia (Magnolia garandiflora), the silver cedar (Cedrus atlantica glauca), Gingko biloba, honey locusts and valuable conifers. There’s also a rare example of Californian Bay and a group of trees made up of antique varieties of camellia, rhododendron, azalea and dogwood (Cornus florida). In the 1970s Willy Neukom designed both the play area and the small swimming pool.
