This comment is based on last summer's displays, or lack thereof....the finesse, the art, the decor, the ambiance, the setting...of the flowers....MISSING....I recall majestic flowers in bloom, manicured lawn, details were not overlooked...now, flowers are "grown" or "just there"...they don't tell a story...they just hang there....it's sad really.

This is just one of many beautiful parks in the city. Well worth the trip to go see. I love all the flower beds and the airplane exhibit.

not sure what this park needs, but in years gone by, it use to be filled with magnificent flowers and roses. It was a show case for the city. Now due to cut backs of all sorts, the city does not maintain it the way they did years ago - such a shame.

Windsor is called the City of Roses and Jackson park is a place to see them. After the formal gardens one can stroll around under the trees or sit on a bench and read. A tranquil spot in a busy city.

The lovely rose gardens. Along with the Dieppe this is a visual treat of flowers. Often brides and their attendants are here to take wedding pictures along with the beautiful plants. It is quiet and peaceful here, a fine place to think things through in natural surroundings.

I took my parent to visit this park since I had heard so many good things about it on trip advisor. It was a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon so after lunch we decided to go for a walk. I have to say that the parking is a breeze you can park right up at the entrance. It does look really... More
