DESCRIPTION

Under an intricate sculpture of weaved wires that intertwines with but never touch the tree branches, a dream-like space invites you to discover an amusing version of the well-known childhood game of jump rope. Come in and play! This garden presents ‘’Le bon arbre au bon endroit’’ program, a Hydro-Quebec initiative to encourage safe tree planting. To learn more about which tree or shrub to plant close to electric wires, go to www.hydroquebec.com/trees/index
