Wellington Garden Centre

I love greenhouses.  One day on my vacation I dropped into the Wellington Garden Centre.  You would hardly know it is there, all tucked in behind the North Edmonton Theatres. 

Once you get inside it is like you are not in the city anymore.  There are perennials, trees, shrubs, flowers and fountains.  They have incredible fountains all running and making soothing sounds.   Some are large and beautiful like the ones you see in Europe in the center of a traffic circle.  They also have nice statuary like gargoyles and pagodas.  I often go for the perennials but also like to just walk around and enjoy the scenery. 

Inside the walls of the garden centre the birds are always chirping and you don't even hear the noise from the busy streets around.  This is really a lovely place to check out.
