The public gardens are Victorian, indeed, which may be feeding a bias in HRM. This category of garden came about upon the commercialisation of temperate and tropical trees and flowers in nothern latitudes. I suspect many people in this city believe this garden is simply unusable during the winter months, with only a minimal amount of evergreens to gaze upon.

This garden is somewhat bland during the winter, to be honest. Many improvements would have to be invested in to bring the garden's appearance up to par, in an absence of colour.
