Butchart Evenings

These warm summer days on the westcoast are perfect for a visit to The Butchart Gardens...love checking out the flowers going through all the different “courses” of summer…You know, there’s the “rose course”, then the “lily course” and make sure you leave room for the “dahlia course”.

But this blog is all about the enchanted evenings at The Butchart Gardens. They flowers look different in the evening light but still beautiful…especially when you see the creatively arranged lighting in the gardens…And this is when the features and sculptures in the garden really come alive. The Japanese Garden in the evening is magical!

Then there’s the Saturday night fireworks show..and live music in the bandshell to take a break and enjoy.

Some enchanted evening, you’ll have to head out for a date-night or take your visitors for the most amazing evening walk.
