We are interested in the experience of horticulture through the lens of art particularly in horticultural therapy practice. We have conducted a series of workshops with diverse clients, and this paper presents and discusses their response through workshop evaluations. We conclude with reflections on future directions to more fully engage art and horticultural therapy.
