The set $\mathscrF(2;2)$ of quadratic foliations on the complex projectiveplane can be identified with a Zariski's open set of a projective space ofdimension 14 on which acts $\mathrmAut(\mathbbP^2(\mathbbC)).$ Weclassify, up to automorphisms of $\mathbbP^2(\mathbbC),$ quadraticfoliations with only one singularity. This allows us to describe the action of$\mathrmAut(\mathbbP^2(\mathbbC))$ on $\mathscrF(2;2).$ On the one handwe show that the dimension of the orbits is more than 6 and that there areexactly two orbits of dimension $6;$ on the other hand we obtain that theclosure of the generic orbit in $\mathscrF(2;2)$ contains at least sevenorbits of dimension 7 and exactly one orbit of dimension $6.$
