November in the Garden

A wide variety of broad-leaved evergreen plants flourish in our maritime climate. Foremost among the broadleaf collections at UBC Botanical Garden are rhododendrons. The rhododendron family, Ericaceae, is rich with evergreens, and is especially important to us—rhododendrons are the Garden’s most numerous and horticulturally significant collection—but the family also includes Gaultheria (salal relatives) and Vaccinium (blueberries). Several other groups of broad-leaved evergreens are represented in the Garden: for example, the berberidads (i.e., Berberis, Mahonia and Epimedium), Cotoneaster, hollies (Ilex) and sweet olives (Osmanthus), but after the ericads, viburnums are probably the most noteworthy and numerous in the collection.
