Edwards Gardens and Toronto Botanical Gardens

Edwards Gardens


A former Estate garden featuring perennials and roses on the uplands and wildflowers, rhododendrons and an extensive rockery in the valley. Among the formal gardens and brilliant floral displays, there are also rock gardens, a greenhouse, wooden arch bridges, a waterwheel, fountains, and many walking trails. On the upper level of the valley there is an arboretum beside the Children's Teaching Garden. Edwards Gardens is also home to the Toronto Botanical Gardens (TBG). The TBG offers programs, garden tours, nature day camps, field trips and an extensive horticultural library.

Hans an I spent some time climbing stairs and walked under the shady trees to get to the upper level of the valley; so much more enjoyable than when Grace and I climbed a steep driveway on our last visit after we asked someone how to find the Teaching Garden.
A particular type of garden where it sounds a lot of work has been put in! If its public then its council employees!

@cejaanderson Jane, it's early in the season as we're at least a month behind this spring. most flower displays were not even planted yet. so I guess another visit is in the planning a few weeks down the road.
