Pandora Avenue Green Space is in the city of Victoria, one of thirteen communities that form the Capital Regional District of British Columbia. Curiously a Chilean Pine tree, aka the monkey puzzle tree, (Araucaria araucana) grows in the middle of Pandora Avenue Green Space. This reptilian looking conifer always catches my imagination as well as many local gardeners as there are several Araucaria around the Capital Regional District. There is also a lovely grassy area next to the bus stop on Pandora Avenue with a small grove of white birch trees. Come out and explore your backyard with a stop at this green space before continuing to the pathways and playground at Stadacona Park, just across Pandora Avenue.
