Happy #CanadaDay! Canada is more than a place—it’s a sense of belonging. Whether you were born here or chose to make it home, today, we celebrate what makes this country special.
Yippy! My wisteria is finally doing what it’s meant to do, after several years of dashed hopes! Smells divine and is beautiful now it’s half covering the pergola. #flower#gardening#GardeningX
FLORAL FIREWORKS
A eucalyptus bud, captured in timelapse, bursts open like a natural firework. Unlike most flowers, these unique blooms have no petals—just fluffy stamens creating the display.
In #Namibia, iNat user skuakanga saw this Euphorbia namibensis #plant - it's our Observation of the Day!
It's endemic to Namibia.

I am seeing a lot of news in the press (at least in Spain) saying that botanists "have decided to get rid of all offensive names on plants". As always some media do not contrast and misinform, this is what has happened. 👇🏻
Do you know what this is? 🤔
This is a soursop fruit (Annona muricata), and it grows in our ENMAX Conservatory! With fleshy green skin covered in spines, it may not look very tasty, but it tastes quite tropical! 🍌🍍🥥🍓

Edmontonians love our city.
And we think you will too.
Today, I am announcing new federal funding that will enhance Edmonton’s downtown core and boost visitor experiences across the city.

@lauracshpeley @EFCL It was our pleasure !! - a great opportunity for us to share our story on how the community leagues have been instrumental in helping our family make connections in the city! Thank you @EFCL for all you do to make families feel they belong…!
Leagues knit us all together & #yeg needs that more than ever. On Nov. 30, we’re asking #yegcc to *expand* our ability to support 162 #CommunityLeagues. This budget will be tough. We think Leagues have earned support. Help amplify our message: #BudgetforCommunity2022
Leagues are where people belong, connect and build a safer city. That’s what Rati and her family have done. We're asking #yegcc to expand our ability to support 162 #CommunityLeagues. Leagues matter. EFCL's support matters.
#budgetforcommunity2022.
