Reader Rock Garden

Hidden Gems · Erlton / Union Cemetery, Calgary
A hillside rock garden created from 1913 by parks superintendent William Reader, who trialled over 4,000 plant species here. Restored and reopened as a City park in 2006, it blooms from mid-March to mid-November and still feels like a secret.
