Toronto Botanical Garden sprouts 30-foot-tall sculpture by Ron Baird.

National Post published: April 29, 2010. Gardens and sculptures go together like roses and weddings. One such beautiful union can be seen at the Toronto Botanical entrance gardens. (Itself a gorgeous work of art; it was created by Dutch designer Piet Oudolf.) The must-see 30-foot-tall sculpture by artist Ron Baird is made of stainless steel and was unveiled yesterday. His work has imaginative elements that move in the wind, are light-responsive or make sounds – fancy that. To “experience” the new sculpture, visit the Toronto Botanical Garden adjacent to Edwards Gardens.
