Grassy hillock

Borders with the desert garden with the creek coming out of a group of basalt pillars ­ original rock formations brought from Ukraine. Hillock has been created artificially ­ under a layer of earth there is a heap of debris that came from demolition of an old, now non­existent Sękowski lodge. On the top of the hillock there is a large group of chestnuts. It is a memento of the old Sękowski household in Jankowo ­ a gift from Mrs. Agnieszka Szuleta. Next to it stands an enormous tree stump of an oak placed here using a 80 ton crane. The tree stump consisting of a dozen of drilled hollows for birds functions as a "skyscraper" for our winged inhabitants of the garden. A decayed hollow at the base of it has been widened creating a small cave covered with a stone roof. The tree stump comes from Iwno where an ancient oak stood in the way of S5 highway construction plans. In the background one can see a tangled depth of fir, spruce and larch branches ­ they are the south flank of the hillock. On the southern edge a group of shrubs grow accompanied by a towering copper beech. A specimen of a "Professor Bolewsław Sękowski" barberry can be found here, named to honour one of the best Polish dendrologists.

 During the early spring patches of blooming crocuses appear among the grass covering the majority of the hillock.
