Established in 1995, Paul Martin Gardens is located in the 15-acre Willistead Park and features many different perennials, including the Nell Martin Rose, a fragrant red hybrid-t dedicated to the late Mrs. Paul Martin, mother of the late Honourable Paul Martin, Senior.
Willistead Park contains over 300 trees, including Windsor's only persimmon, a tree native to the southern United States, a rare Shumard oak, several Kentucky Coffee trees, London Plane, Chestnut, European Elm and Tree of Heaven.
In the secluded shade of Willistead Manor Courtyard Garden, visitors can experience the elegance of a true English garden. Lustrous shades of green are reflected in a number of different shrubs, including Oregon grape, laurel, euonymus, and shiny leafed mahonia. Hot pink, white and red impatiens add sparkle to this quiet, peaceful area.
