ABSTRACT
The historic manor park in Kijany, Spiczyn commune (Lubelskie voivodeship) already existed in the seventeenth century as a regular garden, and in the second half of nineteenth century was transformed into the landscape. The property has a rich history and deserves protection. A detailed inventory dendroflora showed that part of the park grows around the palace 299 woody plants belonging to 23 species, with a predominance of Fraxinus excelsior L., Tilia cordata Mill., Robinia pseudoacacia L. and Acer pseudoplatanus L. The greatest advantage of the object are old specimens of trees – 14 copies in age from 66 to 131 years, including seven trees with circumferences monumental. Today, the park is a gradual naturalization, loses its original spatial arrangement and requires restoration.
