April is such an amazing month, it’s worth asking, “what’s not in bloom?” In the Botanical Garden there are more plants in bloom this month than any other. Magnolias and rhododendrons lead the charge with their lavish blooms, but a closer look around the Garden reveals an extraordinary array of flowers of all shapes and sizes, colours and fragrances. Read the rest of our garden update on our blog for more reasons why you should plan a visit to the garden this month.

You can also stay up to date with UBC Botanical Garden by following us on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. One of of our more recent Instagram videos highlights a bald eagle taking a bath in one of our ponds. It was pretty awesome!
