Tree work April 20 and 21
On Tuesday, April 20 and Wednesday, April 21, some hazardous trees near the Perennial Walk, Great Lawn, Korean Pavilion, and the Sino-Himalayan area will be removed for safety reasons. These areas will be closed and the work will take place until 3:30pm.
Noise from arborist equipment will likely be heard through the garden. If you would like to visit the garden during a quieter time, we recommend visiting on another date, or after 3:30pm on these days.
VanDusen Botanical Garden is a 55-acre oasis in the heart of Vancouver with over 7,500 plant species and varieties from around the world! Spot and photograph local wildlife, find your way through an Elizabethan hedge maze, unwind in a serene setting, dine on the patios of Truffles Cafe or Shaughnessy Restaurant, or browse the garden-themed gift shop. VanDusen has something for everyone to enjoy!
The Garden's multi-award winning LEED Platinum Visitor Centre was named Most Sustainable Building of the Year in 2014. Shaped like an orchid when viewed from above, its organic lines echo the way nature and conservation have been considered at every turn.
