For those who don't know - Butchart family wouldn't have been able to build the infamous Butchart Gardens without getting richer by POC slave labour. Butchart's daughter was the one who saw the rampant cruelty in her family & made one of the hardest working Chinese workers at cement plant as the gardens first master gardener.
Chinese, Sikh & native workers were put into shacks & paid almost nothing, while white workers got proper housing & paid well.
Remember that when you visit #ButchartGardens

I thought this mixture of coleus (the red leaves) and yellow calceolaria (slipper flower) growing together was lovely. Having a purple salvia nearby to drop its fallen flowers on the top just sets it off...

Taken at Butchart Gardens in Victoria, BC.

I visited #ButchartGardens in 1977. Beautiful place, fascinating story of the converted quarry. I remember that tree as being a bit smaller. 🤥 😜

The bathroom at #ButchartGardens dining room isn't #disability friendly. I'm going to speak to them & ask them to please change a few things so it's more accessible to people in wheelchairs. Toilet paper mount is too high - unreachable for many in wheelchairs. Baby change table is mounted & left open in only space wheelchairs can park for transfer.

I'm not in a wheelchair but do #accessibility consultation & notice things, everywhere I go. I contact businesses, if I see accessibility issues.
