 Flora of the Public Gardens
The aim of the urban Victorian garden was to display a great variety of plants in a confined space. Confined, that is, by the standards of aristocratic country estates or the great landscape gardens of the eighteenth century. The Halifax Public Gardens, filled with a wide variety of species, large and small, from near and far, has more than achieved this aim.
 Fauna of the Public Gardens
While the colourful display of plants and flowers is one of the chief reasons for the garden's popularity, its tranquil atmosphere is also an element in attracting visitors. The abundance and variety of bird life found in this unique retreat are an integral part of the area's delightful setting.
