The ninth series of Super Garden kicks off on RTÉ One tonight at 8:30pm. The show is back with five budding garden designers who are competing to showcase their talents at Ireland's garden festival - Bloom.
Each designer will be given the task of transforming a real garden under a specific budget and a five week time restraint.

On tonight's episode, we'll meet forty-seven-year-old designer Ashling Harrison from Rathgar, Dublin. Ashling is a successful business owner and mother of two who leads a busy lifestyle but has always made time to dive into some garden work.
