Join Linda Vater on an unforgettable tour of TJ Maher’s stunning garden in County Wicklow, Ireland — a space where artistry, color, and design come together in harmony with nature. 🌿✨
This episode of A Magnificent Garden Full Of Design Tips 🌷 is overflowing with garden design ideas, landscaping inspiration, and practical tips that any gardener can adapt — whether you’re creating a small urban retreat or caring for a sprawling countryside garden.
🎨 Garden as Art TJ is both a painter and a gardener, and his garden reflects that vision. He shows how to use color theory, line, shape, and texture to build compositions with plants, just like creating a painting. You’ll learn how to:
Layer plants for seasonal interest and bold borders
Echo shapes from the surrounding landscape into your garden design
Balance warm and cool colors to create mood and depth
Use pots and containers for drama and seasonal change
🌸 Highlights from the Tour:
Color-infused borders with dahlias, hydrangeas, and exotic plants
Creative use of terracotta pots & container gardening displays
Garden design principles that work in any size space
Integrating architecture, nature, and borrowed landscapes
A spiritual perspective on gardening as sanctuary and healing
From structural evergreens for winter interest to soft pastels that calm the spirit, this garden offers lessons for all seasons — and for life itself. TJ also shares insights from his book Grounded in the Garden, weaving together practical design techniques with reflections on the spiritual power of connecting with nature.
If you’ve ever dreamed of visiting the Emerald Isle’s most inspiring gardens, this is your front-row seat. 🌍🍀
