Meet the face of BBC Gardeners’ World! Arit Anderson has become one of the most recognisable voices in modern gardening, combining expert knowledge with an infectious enthusiasm for plants and design. This summer, visitors to the Carlow Garden Festival can hear her speak live at the magnificent Borris House on Wednesday 29th July at 11 a.m.

In her talk Arit will share her philosophy of placing plants at the heart of every garden design. Rather than treating planting as an afterthought, she demonstrates how the careful selection and combination of plants can create gardens that are beautiful, resilient, sustainable and deeply connected to nature.

Drawing on her experience as a designer and communicator, Arit will discuss how plants provide structure, colour, texture and seasonal interest while also supporting biodiversity and responding to the challenges of climate change.

This is a rare opportunity to learn from one of horticulture's most influential communicators. Hope to see you there!

It was a pleasure to welcome Christopher O’Sullivan, minister of State for Nature, Heritage and Biodiversity to Borris House last week and to hear about all the wonderful biodiversity projects taking place in County Carlow - a subject close to our hearts.
