The Rose Garden in the seaside community of Sidney, one of thirteen communities that form the Capital Regional District of British Columbia. The garden is beside the community Wellness Park and both are close to the Library. The boxwood bordered rose beds lined the pathways and surround the fountain. So instead of, or maybe after, an invigorating workout you can cool down by wandering along the pathways of the Rose Garden.
