Synopsis
Ireland has been particularly blessed by Mother Nature – the fertile soil, mild climate and generous rainfall has allowed Irish horticulture to put down particularly firm roots. As a noted writer once put it “Irish gardens, like Irish people, are a little wild. It’s the moisture in the air.” This fecundity, aided by the warmth provided by the Gulf Stream, has helped create some of the most exciting gardens to be found in Europe, Ranging from historic landscapes to wild ‘romantic’ valleys and some of the iconic gardens of the twentieth century, this pair of webinars will be an entertaining and colourful introduction.
