redbeulah Posted March 3, 2006 #1 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Does anyone know how the gardens are in early June...I'm from the south and am just wondering if there will be lots of things in bloom at this time. I hate to go if I'm not going to see beautiful gardens....What do you think??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseryyc Posted March 3, 2006 #2 Share Posted March 3, 2006 The Gardens are beautiful at any time of year. There will be lots of flowers in bloom in early June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sueernieb Posted March 4, 2006 #3 Share Posted March 4, 2006 We went to the Gardens in late May a couple of years ago and it was beautiful. This place is amazing. Trust me, you will love it. Sue :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mii Posted March 5, 2006 #4 Share Posted March 5, 2006 We were there last early June and there were flowers blooming. Now of course they were also in the midst of planning flowers for the summer showing but anytime that you are there, there is always some flowers growing.

Starbuck1 Posted March 10, 2006 #5 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Definitely go - June's a perfect month to see all the perennials in bloom. The waterfalls are amazing in the early evenings if your schedule allows. Butchart's does an amazing job all year round. June and July should be great weatherwise - pleasantly warm and no rain jackets required. (But never say never!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheetah Posted March 10, 2006 #6 Share Posted March 10, 2006 As others have said, Butchart Gardens is a delight any time of year. There are several companies that will take you from Vancouver to Victoria on Vancouver Island to see the gardens. Trip takes about 12-13 hours. They have a website. The roses will be spectacular in June. Also, if it rains, there are free clear plastic umbrellas available throughout the gardens that you can use. Also a lovely restaurant that serves "High Tea". http://www.butchartgardens.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted March 12, 2006 #7 Share Posted March 12, 2006 We have been there twice, once in June and once in July, and enjoyed it both times. Victoria is a beautiful island and the Butchart Gardens is a place to see and to walk around outside. I highly recommend it. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
