One of the finest pleasures of a visit to Lougheed House is a stroll through the formal Beaulieu Gardens, situated on the 2.8 acre Lougheed estate. The Lougheeds were horticultural leaders in their community, often winning Calgary Horticultural Society 1st prizes for many garden and lawn entries between the years of 1908 - 1914.
The restored Beaulieu Gardens are a recreation of the Lougheeds' time and the essence of the original can still be seen in the perimeter plantings of spruce trees, the balustrades and the circle beds. The plant material is historically accurate to their period of 1891 - 1925.

Beaulieu Gardens at Lougheed House are a beautiful showpiece for the city of Calgary and the province of Alberta, made possible by our many corporate and private donors. The Beaulieu Gardens in this now public inner-city estate provide pure enjoyment of horticultural beauty and nature, while fostering preservation, education and cooperation within the community. Our outstanding volunteers dedicate countless hours to preparing the beds, planting, weeding, edging, watering, transplanting and deadheading.
Volunteering in the Gardens is fun, educational and appreciated! If interested, please call
(403)244-6333 and ask for Mary-Anne Robeson, Head Gardener (ext. 106).
