Open House & Plant Sale General Information
Enjoy the garden at your own pace or join one of the Guided Tours departing at 11:30 am and 1:30 pm. Guides will also be on hand throughout the garden to point out plants of interest and to answer questions (look for them in their pink pashminas). Our Plant Sales offer a wide selection of perennials, ferns, ground covers, shrubs, and trees, at a very reasonable price and ready to be planted in your garden. These plants have been selected from the Darts Hill Garden and cared for by our Propagation Team.
Most paths are wheelchair accessible. The garden will be open on the dates specified, rain or shine, donation suggested. The parking lot is situated off 16th at 170 th Street. Washrooms are available on site. Sorry, no dogs please. And don’t forget your camera!

The Spring garden is filled with scent-sational plants, so take time to smell the flowers as you stroll though the garden. Some highlights to watch for are the peonies, rhododendrons, lilacs and the magnificent Paulownia trees.

FALL
Don't Miss our Plant Sale!
Saturday, September 15th, 2012 - 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
In an early fall walk through the garden, you will see many plants and trees just as they begin to produce nuts, fruits, and a variety of unusual seed pods. The grasses are also of particular interest. Many fall flowering plants are at their best in September and provide early fall colour throughout the garden.
Saturday, October 13th, 2012 - 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
Be sure to join us for the final Open House at the garden this year. In the fall, visitors can enjoy the magnificent changing leaf colours of a variety of maples, the Nyssa sylvatica, Enkianthus perulatus, as well as late flowering asters and other blooms. Birds love the variety of berries available in so many shades of purple, bright red, yellow and orange.
Please call 604.501.5050 for more information.
