The Cleveland Botanical Garden, located in the University Circle neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States.
History
The origins of the Cleveland Botanical Gardens began to bloom in 1916 when Eleanor Squire donated horticultural books to the Garden Club in Cleveland. The garden itself was founded in 1930 as the Garden Center of Greater Cleveland. It was the first such civic garden in an American city. Originally housed in a converted boathouse on Wade Park Lagoon, the center served as a horticultural library, offering classes and workshops for gardeners and spearheading beautification projects in the community. Past winners include Lynden B. Miller
In popular culture
The gardens were featured in a fifth-season episode of Supernatural, titled "Dark Side of the Moon".
