English Abstract Background: The global population is aging, the demand for health care for the elderly has increased, and supportive therapies are gaining attention. Horticultural activity is considered a safe and promising approach, enhancing mental health and promoting well-being by exposing individuals to natural elements. This study aims to explore the empirical effects of an indoor horticultural program to improve the well-being and hope of older adults in the community. Following a literature search strategy based on evidence-based care, the best available evidence will be reviewed, and an evidence-based intervention design will be implemented. Method: This exploratory study was adopted a single-group pre-test/post-test experimental design, the 8-week indoor horticultural program intervention comprised 120-minute weekly sessions involving the structured activities include thematic introductions, demonstrations, practical work, and qualitative feedback in three stages. Measurement tools include the Five Well-Being Index (WHO-5) and Herth Hope Index (HHI). Quantitative data was analyzed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test, while qualitative feedback was subject to word cloud analysis. Results: The preliminary findings indicate that the indoor horticultural activity intervention can enhance the well-being of elderly individuals at high risk for mental health issues, although there was no significant effect on hope. Qualitative feedback analysis revealed that the top three words associated with participants' experiences were "hope," "happiness," and "joy," indicating a positive emotional response to the program. Activities involving succulent planting and plant printing were particularly favored by the participants. Conclusion: This community-based evidence-based intervention appears to be a feasible approach to enhancing the well-being of elderly residents. The interactions during the activities foster mutual support among the elderly, suggesting that this program holds significant value for community promotion.Keywords:horticultural activity; older adults; well-being; sense of hope; evidence-based practice
