| Description of Garden | Designer:
Helen Dillon |
|||||
| A Plantsman's garden with strong design elements and many choice plants. Never static, the garden is forever being adjusted according to changing tastes. Within the surroundings of a Georgian Dublin house the beautifully designed and planted garden is remarkable for its canal and series of pools and spectacular borders. A series of secret rooms, a sunken terrace, an alpine house and a conservatory contain many rare and choice species. | ||||||
| History of Garden | ||||||
| The garden was begun 30 years ago by Helen and Val Dillon. | ||||||
