Finally, the long-awaited collection of essays \"An Apple Tree in the Garden\" was published, the promotion of which and a meeting with the authors took place this past Saturday.<\/p>\n

This album is a unique publication, because it collects almost everything related to apple trees, apples and our Garden. Beautiful photos and a lot of interesting and very diverse information, authored by 12 people! Thanks to this, the issue of apples and apple trees seems to have been exhausted, because it is both scientific and educational, and about the apple in culture and cuisine, in art and on the plate. Among the authors are people associated with the Polish Academy of Sciences and friends of the Botanical Garden, but also journalist Katarzyna Bosacka, who leads campaigns to plant historical apple trees in Warsaw, and Wojciech Modest Amaro, who shares his recipes in the pages of this book and thus breaks stereotypes about the use of the apple in the kitchen.<\/p>\n

During the meeting we had the pleasure of hosting Prof. Pawel Rowinski - vice president of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Stanislaw Roszkowski - a friend of the Garden, one of the authors of the photographs for the book, Barbara Niedziela - assistant to Prof. Szczepan Aleksander Pieniazek, about whom one of the texts written by the long-time director of our Garden, Prof. Jerzy Puchalski, in which he introduces the work of the Great Orchardist.<\/p>\n

From this diverse collection of essays we will also learn where the biblical paradise was located and whether Eve definitely tempted Adam with an apple. From where the apple tree came to the Vistula River and, further, to our Garden, where we have already collected approx. 600 historical varieties. What measures we are taking to preserve the natural and cultural diversity and whether the idea of hanami under apple trees will catch on in Poland.<\/p>\n
