Stop and Stare Awhile

A few more photos from our wonderful walk around the gardens of Butchart. We found this exquisite triple fountain to top things off, I don’t recall seeing anything quite like it before. Let’s stop and stare awhile. Moving on, more flowers and beautifully manicured lawns galore. I wonder how many full time workers and horticulturists it takes to look after this place year round? Thanks for stopping by.

I like the position where the three water fountain is placed, besides all that vibrant greenery. Looking at it better on the last photo, I wonder if it's passable to discover whatever may be behind the water fountains, more beautiful flowers galore?

I don't believe there is anything else beyond the fountains, but I could be wrong. Thanks for stopping by.

Fountains are an other good part in those places, they are always there!

I reckon it takes a lot of staff do handle all of this

I’d think there are teams of gardeners handling this massive place!

What a gorgeous place... If I lived there I would have an annual pass as well just as you mentioned yesterday. Too bad there aren't places like that everywhere! The are some here in southern California but they are a fair distance from where I live sadly! Awesome pictures!
