"In the Dortmund Botanical Garden, the Rombergpark, there is a pond of almost 2000 m² with 17 swamp cypresses. When the years are not as dry as the summers from 2018 to 2020, the conifers are constantly in water. This is part of the feel-good factor for the tree species that comes from the swamps of Florida. The trees were planted in 1925 and have a trunk circumference of around 1 meter. The entire "swamp cypress forest" is protected as a large natural monument.
