Although Ottawa is littered with museums, a decent botanical one does not exist here. Sure there are some nice shrubs around Parliament, but if you want to visit a one-of-a-kind set of gardens, might I suggest the Montreal Botanical Garden located on 4101 Sherbrooke East (near the Olympic Stadium). Over 22000 plant species flourish there along with several greenhouses, and thematic gardens including First Nation, Chinese, and Japanese ones. The fee is $15 for Quebec residents and $11.25 for students.
Here are some pics from my last visit over there...
