Fruit trees in urban green areas become an alternative method of urban gardening and edible landscape appreciated by city residents. The aim of the study was to identify fruit trees in green squares in the Mokotów district in Warsaw, Poland. Their quantitative share among deciduous trees was identified in general and by species. Changes in the number of plantings of selected species divided into periods (before 2000, in 2000-2019 and 2020-2023) were also recognized. The results show that fruit trees grow in 16 out of 18 squares and currently constitute from 2.0 to 75.0% of deciduous species, with an average share of 24.5%. Most species with edible fruit were planted before 2000 (e.g. Malus domestica). In the years 2000-2019, the number of fruit trees increased mainly through the planting of ornamental varieties (with inedible fruit, e.g. Prunus serrulata 'Kanzan'). The share of trees with edible fruits has increased since 2020, but the diversity of species has reduced -new plantings are dominated by selected species and their varieties (mainly ornamental apple trees, e.g. Malus 'Evereste'). The increasing number of fruit trees has a positive impact on the biodiversity of green squares and development of edible landscape.
