It's a garden to walk through rather than observe from the outside.<br /><br />Jennifer - sadly no sky ride, but still rather special<br /><br />Janet - lots of texture :)<br /><br />Arabella - they do!<br /><br />Mark - tee hee. I wish ;)<br /><br />EG - it'll be interesting to see how the garden is installed back in Cork. It really is a garden to be walked through. It reminds me of a garden in Radstock which is almost impenetrable from the outside, but is delightful to be within.VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-89543435899322978362011-05-28T00:33:25.388+01:002011-05-28T00:33:25.388+01:00The trouble was that for us plebs on the ground th...The trouble was that for us plebs on the ground the garden below was virtually invisible. Luckily the BBC coverage helped to give some of us a sky high view but I cannot see how it got a gold medal. Like Thunderbirds with a giant crane instead of wires.

Sadly on the Tuesday he allowed the effect of what little the punters could see, to be spoiled by allowing privileged viewers of his garden to dump handbags and coats on his garden seating spoiling the view and photos! The paying punters deserve better!!!!Arabella Sockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10936438011119860497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-47554320605492329612011-05-27T12:48:46.151+01:002011-05-27T12:48:46.151+01:00I'm envious - I love the planting in that gard...I'm envious - I love the planting in that garden, bet it looks even better up close.

As a visitor it was difficult to really get a feel for the whole thing which was a shame. The planting was lovely and I am really pleased that it got a gold, it deserved it.Alison Leveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15234997684400583491noreply@blogger.com
