Events Description
Step into a world where sustainability meets wonder. The Babs Asper Display House has been transformed into an enchanted forest where diverse trees inspire imagination and a deeper appreciation for nature. The forest’s gentle, ethereal atmosphere will transport you to an enchanted world where fairies flourish.
This display celebrates the magic and majesty of trees and the role they play in sustaining life, and will help you see nature through a lens of creativity and curiosity, fostering a deeper appreciation for the natural world.
Plant material was selected to represent the layers of a forest ecosystem, including:
Over 30 live trees (elm, oak, birch, lilac, crab apple, pear, Norfolk pine, black hill spruce, Scotch pine, cedar)
Forest floor plantings (a variety of ferns and shrubs)
Bog plantings (Venus flytraps and pitcher plants)
While you wander through our forest, you will learn about the dedicated planting initiatives, forest restoration, and the protection and preservation of trees here at Assiniboine Park. These initiatives are rooted in sustainable care, conservation, and a commitment to future generations.
