The Toronto Botanical Gardens offer an array of 17 award-winning
contemporary themed garden areas spanning nearly four acres. Designed
to educate and inspire, the Toronto Botanical Garden reflects the compact
scale of typical urban gardens in an effort to motivate visitors into translating
ideas into their own gardens. Private tours can also be arranged, and include
visits to Toronto’s other horticultural spots, Edwards Gardens, Allan Gardens
and the Toronto Music Garden. Led by experts from master gardener groups,
horticultural societies, and other gardening enthusiast groups, the tours add to
the beauty of these locations. In 2011, tours to the Gardens of Casa Loma were
also introduced, blending formal and elegant perennial borders with vibrant
wildflowers, rhododendrons, iris, roses and seasonal displays.

Casa Loma, Spanish for ‘house on the hill’, was built between 1911 and 1914
for Canadian financier and industrialist, Sir Henry Pellatt and his family.
Inspired by the elegance and splendor of European design, the castle boasts
exquisitely decorated suites, secret passages, an 800-foot tunnel, towers,
stables, and a beautiful five-acre garden estate. Wander through Peacock Alley,
a reproduction of its namesake at Windsor Castle, or explore the Billiard Room
where Pallett and the castle’s architect, E.J. Lennox recorded a long-running
game of billiards. A Major General in Canada’s second oldest regiment, the
Queen’s Own Rifles, Sir Henry Pellatt had a love of fine art and architecture,
interests that are reflected throughout the castle.
