Montreal Botanical Gardens

Suzan says - Why don't we go to the Botanical Gardens today?
John says - WHY?
Suzan says - Oh because it's magnificent - one of the largest in the world ( 190 acres ) and it's right here in our home town???
Suzan says - I haven't been in a very very long time
John says - I've never been
Suzan says - Well come - I'll show you some images

The Montreal Botanical Garden (FrenchJardin botanique de MontrĂ©al) is a large botanical garden in Montreal, Quebec, Canada comprising 75 hectares (190 acres) of thematic gardens and greenhouses. It was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 2008 as it is considered to be one of the most important botanical gardens in the world due to the extent of its collections and facilities.[3][4]  (SOURCE)

I've never seen the topiary gardens in particular - this was part of last years - what a sin, to live in this city and not have seen this!!!
