A long back garden completely overgrown was transformed into a magical woodland that serves as both a focal point and a destination. 

The soil was like black gold - left over from the days when the garden was part of the Cork City Market gardens.

Shards of greenhouse glass, small glass bottles and rich dark soil hinted the gardens of gardeners past.

This garden is truly a plant person's delight and demonstrates our favorite way to make a landscape low-maintenance: introduce vigorous groundcover. Your reduce inputs over time (weeding, mulching, time) and create habitat for all sorts of interesting fauna at the same time.
