Boxes
in Bloom, a judged exhibit of business and residential window boxes
and entryways, provides Marblehead horticulturists the opportunity
to show off their artistic creativity. The Boxes in Bloom competition
is based upon successful execution of a theme of the entrant's choosing.
Window boxes are eligible if they are visible from the street and
attached to a residential or business structure, including garages,
sheds, fences, posts, etc. Entryways or doorways may include freestanding
containers and hanging baskets.
Since we must give Mother Nature and our horticulturists ample time
to do their magic, Boxes in Bloom entries are judged late in June
— too late for inclusion in the printed Festival Program.
During the Festival, a Boxes in Bloom display at Abbot
Hall features photos of all entries
and maps which are available for your own, self-guided
tour. Entries are marked with numbered flags bearing the
Festival’s Boxes in Bloom logo.
