For a bountiful spring flower display, head on over to the Brueckner Rhododendron Gardens in Mississauga, along the shores of Lake Ontario.
Thanks to the beauty of different blooming periods, no matter when you visit Brueckner Rhododendron Garden in the spring and summer, there are often new flowers blooming.
The park is named after Dr. Joseph Brueckner, a recognized plant hybridizer, who donated hundreds of rhododendrons to the garden from his private collection.
Don't let the name fool you, though, as Brueckner Rhododendron Gardens is also home to hundreds of azaleas, beautiful white pines, shrubs, and other flowers like roses and peonies.
Located at 660 Lakeshore Road in the Port Credit neighbourhood of the city, the gardens are accessible via Lakeshore Road or the Waterfront Trail.
