Super Garden sprang onto our screens tonight, introducing viewers to a new batch of budding gardeners. Watch it back on RTÉ Player now.
Each year, five nature lovers take on the challenge of designing a stunning home garden worthy of going to Bord Bia Bloom, Ireland's premier garden show.
With just three weeks and a budget that amounts to €15,000, each designer takes over one garden in a new social housing estate – their blank canvas – to make something that will impress the judges.
On this week's episode of Super Garden, designer Adrian Bolton is tasked with creating a wheelchair-accessible garden for Mum, Erma, and her 25-year-old daughter, Migle.
Erma is Migle's full-time carer, so she has requested a garden that will be interactive and colourful for her daughter during the day, and somewhere that she can relax when she has time for herself in the evening.
To deliver on these needs, Adrian designed a wheelchair-accessible garden that featured a beautiful variety of tactile plants and a reclaimed 'green man' water feature, as well as a covered garden bench and a swing seat.
Originally from Lancashire in England, Adrian has been living in Ireland for 25 years, and currently resides in Stepaside, Co. Dublin, with his wife and son, Andrew.
When he applied to take part in the competition, he had just been made redundant from his job, but had a background in renewable energy engineering, which he was able to put to good use with his garden.
Since taking part in the show, Adrian has a new job and a reignited passion for garden design.
Reflecting on his work, the judges praised his "lovely planting" that delivered great "movement and texture". However, Judge Brian Burke was concerned that Adrian's work lacked the precision needed to win a spot at Bloom.
Most importantly, though, Erma and Migle were thrilled with the results and are excited to explore their new space.
