The Boston Public Garden, established in 1837, holds the distinction of being the first public botanical garden in America. Unlike the practical Boston Common, the Public Garden was designed as a decorative space, featuring meandering pathways and vibrant floral displays that showcase the artistry of Victorian gardening techniques.

Maintained by the Boston Parks and Recreation Department, the garden is home to over 80 species of plants cultivated in city greenhouses, contributing to its rich and romantic setting. The nonprofit group Friends of the Public Garden works alongside the city to preserve and enhance this beloved attraction, which is a popular venue for weddings and community events.
