Finnerty Gardens






Finnerty Gardens is a delightful spot to get sidetracked at...with over 4000 trees, plants and shrubs, there is a little something there for everyone! Whether you are meandering along the paths and visiting the different garden sites or resting peacefully on a perfectly placed bench when the mood strikes you, it truly is a hidden gem in our city, that has the added bonus of free admission. With over 1500 rhododendron and azalea plants, it makes for a very colourful visit during April and May when the rhodos are their prettiest! We were a wee bit late in catching them at their best, but will definitely go back again next year to see. My pictures are not doing justice to this beautiful area...
