Visit Fota this weekend for the Plant Fair

The Plant Fair happening in Fota this weekend is the ideal place to root out those sought after specimens and varieties which have eluded your grasp so far.

As garden centres are changing and becoming more ‘destinations’ to be all things to all people, the plant centre is becoming a thing of the past.

The new breed of garden centres are certainly excellent visitor attractions and hours can be whiled away but the range of plants on offer is shrinking as a result.
