2019 Blarney Castle Gardens

 Wandering around in the gardens at Blarney Castle in Cork was a big highlight of our trip. I took pictures of EVERYTHING. I don't have tons to say about most of the pictures, but I enjoy looking at them, so here they are for your enjoyment too. 


This is in the Poison Garden. It was my favorite part. Everything in there is poisonous. I'm kind of obsessed. 

I liked that the poison garden had plaques to tell about all the different plants. I did start thinking about creating my own poison garden back home. But, I don't like gardening, so it's not to be. 




Some things were just out in the open, and others were caged off. 

Ben and the kids really humored me and tried to act like they found it as interesting as I did.




Like, isn't that just the best? I went to sleep that night still just thinking about how great it was. I truly enjoyed that poison garden, lol. 

Look at this ginormous tree! It's in the regular gardens. 

Soooo pretty!
















These trellises were so nice. Lots of cool plants were growing over everywhere. 













There was a small bamboo forest. 

Check out that lovely green water.
