Comment: I don't think that the conservancy website or book published by the conservancy counts as an independent source. At least one more independent (and reliable, in-depth and secondary) source is needed for notability. UserMemer (chat) Tribs 17:19, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Close paraphrasing and only changing a few words still counts as a copyright violation. Please phrase the source in your own words. MolecularPilot 🧪️✈️ 05:57, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Darts Hill Garden Park is a public garden situated in the City of Surrey, BC, Canada.[1][2] The public entrance is at 1633 170 St, Surrey, BC V3S 9X3.
Public entry is currently by donation to the volunteer trust that helps maintain the garden in line with the wishes of the original donor - Francisca Darts. Opening days are generally Friday to Sunday, April to end September.[3]
In 1942 Ed and Francisca Darts bought a rough, stump-covered acreage[4] in Surrey, BC which they turned into a working orchard. Driven mainly by Francisca's vision, it was was gradually turned into a garden specializing in rare and unusual plants - a so-called "plantsman's garden" - which has now resulted in one of the most diverse collections of mature trees, shrubs, and perennials in western Canada, set out in over 60 labelled garden beds.
In 1994 Edwin and Francisca Darts donated their 7.5-acre garden to the City of Surrey which then extended the total area to 22.5 acres for its citizens to enjoy. The Darts' also provided an endowment for its on-going maintenance and support. The non-profit Darts Hill Garden Conservancy Trust Society works in partnership with the City of Surrey towards these goals.
