Popped in for a turmeric coffee on this one we completed for Chocolate Brown's Urban Oasis in Tullamore a year ago. It's great to hear the feedback and how popular the outdoor seating area we created is becoming!

Great advice here from the RHS on buying plants over the Christmas period. Obviously ignore the bit about UK grown plants and buy Irish!

We have yet to survey a site in the past two years where Ash trees are present and unaffected by Ash Dieback. The preference is always to specify and retain, where possible, native plant material that is already present on the site or in the surrounding landscape.

In the case of Ash trees alternatives have to be specified. These alternatives are usually Birch, Rowan or trees that suit the specific site. Ash trees are often key constituents to what makes up the landscape character of a specific site.

You can't help but feel that the replacement of one species for another, even though it is best practice, has a negative impact on the character of a site where the dominant tree species has to be removed. This is a really worthwhile project and outlines the important work of state bodies and key stakeholders working in the environmental sphere in Ireland.

A new forestry research project, AshforFuture, aimed at preserving and reviving ash trees in Ireland, was officially launched today

Fascinating couple of hours at the All Ireland Hedge Laying Championship today. Congratulations to all the competitors and organisers! Did not realise how much is involved in this ancient craft. Definitely a couple of hours well spent. https://hedgerows.ie/about-us/

We sourced this zero depth water feature to pick up on the stone

Throw back to five years ago! The granite boulder was discovered during construction and not part of the original design. At the perfect height and depth for a bench, rather than go to the expense of removing it, it became part of the design. As one neighbour put it; "these granite boulders are the Victorian equivalent of shopping trolleys!" The granite was brought down from the Wicklow Mountains to construct the houses in Crostwaith Park. What was left over was simply buried. Add a few cushions, and this becomes a really comfortable private space in what is a front garden of a Victorian terrace.

Parque Sama, Cambrils, Spain

So glad we took the day out from the beach on our family holiday to visit the historic Parque Sama. Chomping at the bit to get back to work after a well-earned break for a busy few months ahead! https://g.co/kgs/VJkqUm6

Our new rain garden blending the industrial heritage of Tullamore with modern day coffee roasting at Chocolate Brown's Urban Oasis.

Looking forward to seeing some comfortable furniture and outdoor art in this recently completed rain garden. Can't wait to head back and enjoy a coffee in this outdoor space with the rain beating down on the corrugated roof!
