Castra Osaniovo is one of the "greenest" Caphirian cities; every inhabitant of Castra Osaniovo has access to 87.5 square metres (942 sq ft) of public gardens and parks. Its mild climate allows the growth of numerous subtropical plants, such as the Greater Island Pine, Virgin's Winter Willow, Queen White-Root, White Roundleaf Corydalis, Tassel Dogbane and Perennial Violets. Major parks include: Pandora Meadows, which extends for about 25 hectares; Crescent Park, which extends for about 20 hectares with a medieval castle on the top; the Almond Gardens which extends for about 13 hectares, with a little pond which is home to flamingos and other wading birds; Grand Avenue Park, which extends for about 22 hectares and hosts the city library in an old mansion on the top of the hill; and Trillium Plaza, which extends for about 2.5 hectares.[[File:Cascade de Sillans.jpg|thumb|The Arraetonian waterfalls |left]]Castra Osaniovo has a tropical rainforest climate with no distinctive seasons, uniform temperature and pressure, high humidity, and abundant rainfall. Temperatures usually range from 23 °C (73 °F) in the coldest month, January to 32 °C (90 °F) in August, the warmest month. (73 to 90 °F). While temperature does not vary greatly throughout the year, there is a wetter monsoon season from November to February. But heat waves can occur, due to Urcean anticyclone, starting in June. From mid-June to mid-September, rain is a rare event, limited to brief afternoon storms. The rainy season starts in September, and the first cold days come in December. Winds are frequent, especially the mistral and sirocco; in summer, a marine sirocco breeze lowers the temperature and brings some relief from the heat. | Castra Osaniovo is one of the "greenest" Caphirian cities; every inhabitant of Castra Osaniovo has access to 87.5 square metres (942 sq ft) of public gardens and parks.
