Garden - Depending on the season, one can see different plants in bloom. One can spend an hour or two looking around. A lot of local, North American and worldwide plants on display.

Can’t Miss Botanical Gardens - The Gardens are just gorgeous with such a variety of foliage and flowers. The paths are easily navigated and not too difficult. Plenty of shade so you do not get too hot. One of my favorite areas was where they categorized plants by their uses. For example all the plants that could be grown and used in curry or to make fabric dye or put in your curry etc I took lots of photos and will add many of those plants to our herb garden in the spring. Well done again Canada!!

Vancouver/Alaska Cruise Adventure - The gardens were beautiful and one of the best I've been too. Very well manicured and identified. The maze was fun although I'm not sure we made it to the middle. Some sort of sign in the middle would be nice to have, but fun none the less. Map was helpful in guiding us through the gardens to ensure we had seen all there was to see.

More signage needed - We felt it was limited access for using a wheelchair and the Signage overall was poor. What we did see was nice.
