Every April, for over a hundred Aprils now, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum has been ritually festooned with nasturtium vines. The museum's courtyard is a lush, surreal, artifact-strewn garden, and Bostonist spent an otherwise- rainy Monday afternoon there to watch as delicate vines were hung from the interior balustrades in anticipation of Mrs. Gardner's birthday on the 14th. (She'll be 169 years old.) Tended by Chief Horticulturalist Stan Kozak, each vine is fifteen to twenty feet of orange blossoms, historically-appropriate varieties, and painstaking cultivation.
