My sister was in town for a visit so we wandered around Butchart Gardens one afternoon.

I like the plastic-like texture and the Thrills gum colour of this whirligig flower.

Columbines are one of my favourite flowers but I'm not happy with any of my photos of them this year.

Hosta leaves are intriguing.

I rode on a zebra while my sister sat in one of the bench-seat sleighs. A couple of horses were missing though. One was the first horse I rode on opening night - a white one with flowers. We were told it was being used in a parade, so apparently they have carousel animals in reserve. Instead, there was this white horse, which I like better, and also a horse with armour. The other missing animal was my favourite, the RCMP horse.

I spotted it a week later being used in this advertising display on the Empress Hotel lawn.
