A walk through Butchart Gardens near Victoria, BC, Canada on a beautiful Spring day was totally delightful.
I felt like the pictures would speak today for me.
The gardens just took my breathe away.

This garden looks amazing! I have a couple garden's on my list to visit here in the next couple months and I cant wait!
Thank you for letting me join your walk. We were there years ago, and it still remains fresh in my memory. What a BEAUTIFUL place that everyone should see.
Beautiful photos! Can't wait to see some flowers blooming here. There's nothing like spring for energizing! Thanks!
Your photos of the beautiful Butchart Gardens are great. I loved seeing the totem poles, espalier vines, water features, etc. and all the beautiful flowering plants.

:-)
i want to touch them
lightly.
i do.
After such a long winter isn't it wonderful to know Spring is really here. What great photos.Thank you
Oh man, am I ever jealous!!! I could do a month's worth of post just on the pictures alone. I will have to go back and ponder each one.
The gardens are gorgeous. Our daffodils are just starting to bud out.
I've spent way too much time on your blog this morning and enjoyed every minute! The lovely gardens, tea at the Empress and your Canon Rebel adventures. Did you sit in that chair by the sea? With a wonderful book?
Thanks for a nice visit.
Best,
Bonnie
Thank you for the walk-about, Marilyn! This did my spirit good, for it has been chilly, gray and rainy for some days here...not at all spring-like or blooming! That white cascade of wisteria is breathtaking...*swoon*... Happy Day :o) ((HUGS))
Breathtakingly beautiful... this is exactly the sort of image I have of Victoria. I always have this strong desire to inhale and reach out to touch with visuals as powerfully evocative as these. Thank you for sharing!
What a beautiful place. I haven't been there in years and remember it as wonderful. Thanks for taking us along.
Oh my, these are amazing! A friend of mine has praised Butchart Gardens and now I can see why!
So many gorgeous images. But that magnolia!
Love, love, love Butchart Gardens! Haven't been in years; now I have a yen to return! Thanks for the beautiful photos, especially that macro of the magnolia!
