Of course I have some more memories from this beautiful garden. I hope you enjoy them too!

So, we are leaving the Sunken Garden and heading for the Japanese Garden. Often those gardens are my favourites because of their total harmony, and the impact that makes.







I also must post a piece of the Rose Garden and some glorious flower arrangements. We only got two hours in Butchart, so unfortunately I did not get all the time needed to take everything in and to photograph everything I wanted.

This tunnel was lovely, with roses on both sides and hanging flower baskets between every arch.

I love to see different flower arrangements, they are both eye candy and inspiration for any lover of gardens and flowers.

They excelled in using only one colour as well – 50 shades of green?

It was hard to leave this amazing place, but we were grateful to have got this opportunity. Before we went, I was afraid it might be the wrong season to visit – now I know it wasn’t!

The colour combinations were stunningly perfect. As were the different matching of shapes. Even the colour of the window fits in.

I know many of you have visited these gardens, and finally I did too. This must be one of, if not The, most beautiful garden I have ever visited. The Sunken Garden was an outstanding experience. We could not have had a more lovely finale for this cruising adventure. Thank you for joining me!
You certainly got some wonderful images from this garden, AC. Loved the Rose garden, and the Japanese
Thank you, Sue! In fact I have just booked a trip to Sissinghurst next May!
Oh, fab! You need to be in the UK for a few days so I can see you!!
That will be a bit difficult as this is an organized bus tour for only 5 days!
Are we talking tonight?
Goodness, now?
Another comment gone into the ether. Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed these photo, A-C, and your photos do justice to the beauty of the Gardens. I especially love the Japanese garden. Japanese gardens look beautiful but really take a lot of work to keep looking that way. Thanks for brightening my day with all this beauty. ❤
Thank you, Janet! Yes, they really put down their soul into those gardens. They even comb the grass!
Such wonderful views of the garden. Lovely to see these in November 🙂
Yes, thank you. November grey as ever here. There’s nothing cheering up like a colourful garden!
I don’t think there is a wrong season to visit Butchart Gardens as they are open to visitors year round and always have something magical happening. It is by far the most beautiful garden I have ever visited. You certainly used your time wisely as evidenced by your amazing captures. Beautiful post.
Thank you very much – I think I agree. They keep it beautiful throughout the year.
My visit was during the autumn too and the garden was full of flowers. I liked the Japanese garden and the Italian courtyard.
Me too. And Jude, I have booked a trip to Sissinghurst next May! So looking forward to it!
Sissinghurst s one of my favourites, been a while since we visited as it is such a long way from here now. Great Dixter is also good if you have the time.
Great Dixter is in their agenda too!
Great!
So looking forward to it! What flowers will be blooming around the end of May? We will arrive the 24th.
My favourite month. We often go away at the end of May and always find wonderful flower gardens. There will be lots in flower including Alliums and Irises, roses, geraniums. I have a post on my flower blog, years ago and not from May, but you might enjoy it.
Aaaaah, already walked with you! Thank you for sending the link – this was a treat, and I cannot wait until May!
Too long away for a chance to meet?
I’m afraid so.
Oh. It would have been so great… But difficult anyway because it’s an organised bus tour. 💚
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you, it was a great visit!
Those autumn hues and shades of green are just glorious.
💚💛❤️
This looks so beautiful. Mature and well-filled, but with such thought and care. And your photos are the next best thing, since I’m unlikely ever to visit for real.
Stunning gardens and photos
Such beautiful images of this wonderful garden!
Unfortunately haven never been to any part of Canada. Think I would love Vancouver . . . and a long visit to the Gardens! Hoping!!! It comes across as comforting . . . I love the very many ways all the greens flow right across . . .
I’m loving these photos and continuing stories about this garden. Such a lush garden it is! Your photos are wonderful.
