  • The Newsletter of the IRISH GARDEN PLANT SOCIETY
    The Newsletter of the IRISH GARDEN PLANT SOCIETY ISSUE NO. 89 APRIL 2003 E d i t o r i a l Dear Fellow Members, Thanks to our regular and new writers we have an excellent range of articles in this issue. I am deeply grateful to all these people and would like to remind you that new contributors are always welcome. Indeed contributions have been so generous for this newsletter that some articles have had to be held back for another issue. Printing and postage costs are hindering expansion of the newsletter despite the committee’s best efforts to overcome these obstacles. Any helpful suggestions would be welcomed. The survey of Irish cultivars is a central activity of the society and I urge you to read and respond to Brendan Sayer’s article promptly. There will be no new series of “Garden Heaven” this year. We will instead have a re- run of some past programmes. R.T.E. is giving rather a poor service to Irish gardeners. Why not let them know that you are not satisfied with this situation. Best wishes and enjoyment to you all in the garden this season and remember to watch out for Irish cultivars for your garden this year. Paddy Tobin, “Cois Abhann”, Riverside, Lower Gracedieu, Waterford [email protected] 051-857955 In this Issue The State of Play for Irish A Woodland Garden in Early Cultivars by Brendan Sayers Spring by Marty Adams Augustine Henry and Irish Plant Borderline by Annette Dalton Collector in China, Chelsea 2002 The Shrubby Potentilla by Paul Maher Collection at Ardgillan Demesne Ramblings of an Older Gardener by Kevin Halpenny by Dr.

  • Discover Ireland's Remarkable Range of Gardens Famed
    Discover Ireland’s remarkable range of gardens famed for their rhododendrons, azaleas, magnolias & spring bulbs Full day visits to each of the world renowned Mount Congreve, Birr Castle Demesne & Mount Stewart Other gardens include Fota, Kilmacurragh, Powerscourt & Rowallane Several private visits with hosted lunches Very comfortable 4 & 5* hotels based at Ballymaloe near Cork, Barberstown Castle in Co Kildare and the Culloden near Belfast Rhododendrons, Mount Congreve Ireland has been particularly blessed by Mother Nature – the fertile soil, mild climate and generous rainfall has allowed Irish horticulture to put down firm roots. As a noted writer on Irish Gardens, Patrick Bowe, 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 spring gardens to be found in Europe. Spring in Ireland is not just about seeing the green shoots emerge; it is the abundant display of blossom provided by the magnolias, rhododendrons, azaleas and other flowering trees and shrubs which make this time of year so special for garden visitors. Over the three stages of this tour we shall visit some of Ireland’s most important gardens, guided by either the owners or head gardeners, in some of which we shall experience a level of hospitality particularly associated with Ireland. Indeed, our tour will begin in Cork, staying at the renowned Ballymaloe House Hotel, the icon of Irish hospitality, for five nights. From here we shall visit Mount Congreve, where the gardens reflect the extraordinary level of horticultural excellence achieved by the late Ambrose Congreve - acre after acre of amazing flowering trees and shrubs greet one at every turn, an extraordinary experience.
