The Butchart Gardens also features a brilliant collection of exotic birds, plants, flowers, and beautiful statues which are worth the visit.

The Butchart Gardens receive over a million visitors each year due to the uniqueness of their floral display gardens.

Robert Pim Butchart (1856–1943) began manufacturing Portland cement in 1888 near his birthplace of Owen Sound, Ontario, Canada. He and his wife Jennie Butchart (1866–1950) came to the west coast of Canada because of rich limestone deposits necessary for cement production.
