Meadow is a WOW at the Spring & Garden Show
Focusing on recycling themes and modern living, Meadow's garden entitled "Vertical Recycled" earned universal praise from the many show-goers.
Ciaran Kirwan Meadow's Creative Director explains: "The Garden uses recovered and found materials to demonstrate how gardening can be enabled on a tight apartment balcony or in a small suburban garden. This format could also provide an excellent base for a school garden or a community space"
“It’s amazing the use you can get out of a few old Wavin pipes – this demonstrates how easy it is to recycle from household materials such as concrete blocks and old wood or metal.
The garden featured recovered tyres which were planted with herbs and Mediterranean plants to add color and texture. A crumb rubber mulch provided a novel yet environmentally friendly landscape for the garden and demonstrates how a proactive attitude to recycling can be functional and good looking.
The garden was built with the kind support of Kilmurray Nurseries (based in Gorey) who provided the wide variety of herbs and herbaceous plants.
Jenny Bristow, the reknowned celebrity chef also presenting at the show, complimented Meadow on the garden design for its simplicity and focus on important themes.
