Steps lead up to the park from the street Sturenkatu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The park has benches for sitting and relaxing and is surrounded by Sargent crabapples (Malus toringo var. sargentii) with perennials growing in the centre. Among the white-blossomed Sargent crabapples grow other pink- and red-blossomed crabapple trees. This small park is a unique little oasis among the parks in Helsinki and is certainly worth a visit, especially when the trees are in blossom in late May and early June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group fig col2\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"651\" src=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/omenankukka2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1810\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/omenankukka2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/omenankukka2-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/omenankukka2-768x500.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">In addition to crabapple trees and Sargent\u2019s apples, the park also has bistort and geraniums <em>Elina Nummi<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"651\" src=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/omenankukka3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1812\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/omenankukka3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/omenankukka3-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/omenankukka3-768x500.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A small crabapple tree with dark red flowers is now being reproduced and sold under the name Malus \u2018Linnanm\u00e4ki\u2019 <em>Elina Nummi<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the eastern edge of Alppipuisto Park is an attractive small green that was created [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":12102,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[149],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3020","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-kallio"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/hp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/omenankukkapuisto_ELinaNummi.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3020","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3020"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3020\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13155,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3020\/revisions\/13155"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12102"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3020"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3020"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vihreatsylit.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3020"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
