Gardening: Seven blooming great free designs to try at home Annual garden festival Bloom goes virtual with design packs, competitions and talks
about an hour ago
Traditionally one of the highlights of the Irish gardening season, for the second year in a row Ireland’s biggest gardening show, Bloom, will not be taking place in Dublin’s Phoenix Park this weekend because of the pandemic’s social-distancing restrictions.
But the unexpected silver lining for Irish gardeners is the new Easy Steps to Dream Gardens initiative, a series of really excellent online design packs that organiser Bord Bia has specially commissioned from some of the country’s best-known professional garden designers and landscape architects to mark this year’s virtual event.
