BOTANICAL
GARDENS
Established in 1936, it is
the only residential school for training horticultural
students in Canada. Horticultural excellence is the
keynote of the School of Horticulture. One hundred acres
of immaculately maintained gardens provide a visual
feast for over 1 million visitors annually. Several
hundred students have created, over a 60 year period,
one of North America's most outstanding landscapes and
botanical collections.
The Gardens are open to visitors
for a self guided tour of the Plant World as seen in
the herb garden, the vegetable garden, the rock garden
or the splendid arboretum, embracing one of Canada's
finest collections of ornamental trees and shrubs. Visitors
may also book a guided half hour tour with the Nature
Interpreter for a fee of $3.00 per person or schedule
a group tour (max 60 people per group) at a reduced
fee of $2.75. The group tour should be booked in advance.
