An exclusive peek at Canada Blooms the Flower & Garden Festival
March 17 – 21, 2010


The Canadian Cancer Society invites you to Join the Fight with their garden Yellow Beacon, designed and built by Scott Torrance Landscape Architect Inc.. As you walk through a serene outdoor urban gallery of springtime flowers, daffodils, and waterfalls, you will feel the full impact of this year's message "Fight Back". A twelve foot wall of bright yellow daffodils is the beacon that will glow from afar and draw you in. Once inside, a maze-like pathway will take you through a series of unique gardens, a meditative reflecting pond and a dramatic stone message wall. This truly inspring and thought provoking garden is a tribute to the fighting spirit in all of us. Join the Fight today at fightback.ca.
