HANGING NASTURTIUMS
Every April, cascades of flowering nasturtium vines are draped from the Courtyard balconies, signaling the beginning of spring in Boston. The vines are grown from seeds sown in late summer and cultivated in the greenhouses through winter. Ten gardeners are required to create the Hanging Nasturtiums installation, and the result is a stunning display seen nowhere else.
The Hanging Nasturtiums installation is supported by Vivien and Alan Hassenfeld, and Elizabeth and Matthew Denison. Courtyard displays in April are made possible, in part, by the Sorenson Fund for Horticulture. Landscape and Horticulture public programs are supported by the Barbara E. Millen and Markley H. Boyer Endowment Fund.
