Victoria Day Weekend Celebrations

Victoria Day observed on the last Monday preceding May 25 to honour Queen Victoria, who is known as the "Mother of Confederation". The holiday has existed in Canada since at least 1845, originally on Victoria's natural birthday, May 24. It falls on the Monday between the 18th and the 24th (inclusive). 

For many of us, the long Victoria Day weekend marks the end of the winter and the unofficial start of the spring or summer season.  After this weekend, gardeners can be reasonably sure that there will be no more frost until the autumn. 😜

To celebrate many people gather in parks to enjoy fireworks displays, barbecue and party with family and friends or go to cottage country. 

The most popular flowers for the occasion are peonies, roses, and lily-of-the-valley.
