Some great autumn interest plants from my garden here in Ireland

We had a rather wet day here yesterday, but I still like to take a stroll in the garden and enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of the garden, even when it is raining... #ciaranthegardener #plantinspiration #thepaddockgarden #gardening #gardeninspiration #plantmagic #gardenreel #rainydays

Longer evenings, warmer days, fire pit nights... 🔥🔥🔥

@ejbaraka.bsky.social the new album is killer! Well gone to you both, I hope it helps take you to new highs. Good luck with the upcoming tour, hope to see you in Dublin.

Here are 5 great plants that you can plant now! This new variety of Daphne is superb, making a really neat compact plant, packed with buds and has a great perfume. #ciaranthegardener #thepaddockgarden #plantinspiration #gardening #gardeningtips #plantmagic #hardyplants

Over watering is the biggest killer of Houseplants. My tip is, let the top 5cm go dry between watering, only water when the compost feels dry when you put your finger into the first knuckle deep #gardeningtips #houseplants #houseplantcare #houseplantcaretips #indoorplants

There are some nice flowering plants at this time of year, however, good foliage plants provide not just the backbone and structure of a planting scheme, they can also be highlights in their own right. Check out Schefflera alpina, Baccharis genistelloides aamongst others in our garden. #foliage

It felt so good to get out to the garden for a few hours yesterday, chopping back, weeding, planting, all done while sniffing the sweet scent of Daphne blooms. #plantinspiration #gardening #gardeninspiration #gardeningtips #plantmagic #hardyplants #ciaranthegardener

I love foliage as much as flowers, repeating similar colours of foliage throughout a planting scheme harmonises the planting, helping to achieve a unified planting scheme. #ciaranthegardener #plantinspiration #thepaddockgarden #gardening #gardeningtips #hardyplants #gardendesignideas
