This garden, completed in 2006, is one after my own heart. Every single plant was chosen for a theme! Every variety name links in, and "Queen", "King", "Duke", "Duchess", "Princess", "Prince","Royal", "Empire", "Elizabeth", "Edward", etc., is there. In November, there are no plants to be seen, but the rows of plant labels can be clearly seen and read - I was spellbound!

wow...you are so lucky to have a chance to visit this wonderful facility...I hope to make it to the Montreal Botanical Garden next spring.. There was no Flora Exhibition this year...not sure why...but must see the MBG... Also would like to see the RBG (Royal Botanical Gardens) in Hamilton, too. They have a school of Agriculture in Ottawa...their are many beautiful parks in Ottawa too...being the nation's capital...must post some pics.
