Details
The Phytosanctuary Garden, at a glance, is a beautiful array of colours and life, with multiple plants gathered in sections and a small path leading itβs way through the space. However, upon closer inspection, the garden actually represents something far more sinister. The garden has been designed to spread awareness and knowledge of the deadly plant disease Xylella, a known and growing issue in the gardening world with the main focal point being the Olive tree in the centre, of which represents the terrible disease having attacked multiple Olive trees in Italy and Southern Europe in 2013. CED Stone supplied Irish Barley Quartzite Aggregate for the pathways in the garden.
