The accolade consists of a framed certificate including the text "The Noble Vancouver Island Hemlock" in a large, cursive font, along with a longer passage in much smaller text.

Captain George Vancouver was a British Royal Navy officer and explorer. Many landmarks in British Columbia, Yukon and Washington are named after him. He was born on June 22, 1757 and died on May 10, 1798.
