IN FULL BLOOM

I’m taken by a few of the concepts for show gardens at Bord Bia Bloom 2024 which opened on Thursday at Dublin's Phoenix Park and continues until Monday. A Space for Possibilities: The Modular Container Garden, designed by Louise Checa and sponsored by Bord Bia, follows a hexagonal pattern inspired by bees, and can be fully customised at the design stage.
