Jimi will introduce you to his extensive woodland plant collection.  He will focus on choice woodlanders, their growing conditions, plant combinations, propagation and succession planning in woodland gardens.

Jimi started gardening as a young boy alongside his mother, Kathleen, a keen gardener. After leaving school, he trained in the National Botanic Gardens of Ireland, based in Glasnevin, Dublin and then worked in several gardens and nurseries before landing his dream job. Hired to transform Airfield, a 38-acre estate farm, into a visitor destination, Jimi was appointed head gardener at the age of twenty-one and given the freedom to hone his skills and find his individual planting style. After eleven happy years at Airfield, he secured 20 acres of the family estate to create his own dream garden at Hunting Brook Gardens, Co. Wicklow. Here Jimi grows and expands his plant collection and shares his passion for plants with other enthusiasts through courses, workshops, lectures, and tours. When not at Hunting Brook, Jimi travels the world to find plants, meet people and be inspired by fresh ideas.
