Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain (ROYGBIV). This mnemonic (pronounced nemonic because the first "m" is silent) is a memory device that will help you remember the colors of the rainbow… red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. However, Mother Nature needs no such device. She wears, and paints, these colors around the world 365 days a year. The following are some of her best renditions of those colors.

BUTCHART
GARDENS located
on Vancouver Island is near the city Victoria,
BC, just off the mainland city of Vancouver. Victoria is the city known
as "The Sunshine City of Gardens". During the summer months, a blaze
of blossoms in front of the magnificently domed BC Legislative Building, spell
out the words: "Welcome To Victoria". Roses bloom at Christmas
and, in early March, tulips and daffodils are shipped all over Canada from this
area. There are flowers everywhere, but you haven't seen anything
until you've seen Butchart Gardens.
