 This spectacular 22-hectare (55-acre) garden in the heart
of Vancouver has matured into a botanical garden of international stature since
opening to the public in 1975.
There is always something interesting to see, no matter what the season!
The mild Vancouver climate allows the cultivation of an outstanding plant
collection which is a delight any time of the year. VanDusen boasts over 255,000
plants representing more than 7,300 taxa from around the world.
Our plant collections represent ecosystems that range from tropical South
Africa, to the Himalayas, to the Canadian Arctic, as well as plants native to
our own Pacific Northwest.
