Follow on Google News | New Departure in Gardening. Ireland Welcomes Gardeningonline.ieGardeningOnline.ie has just gone live. The new site offers a new dimension to gardening in Ireland. A key difference is that plants can be viewed and purchased in themed collections – no more deciphering obscure Latin names.
By: Dunsland Garden Centre Peter Dowdall has over 20 years experience in gardening in Ireland and abroad. He's a regular on television, radio and in print throughout Ireland and the UK and his first book will be published in the Spring of 2010. He has personally put together the plant collections in the gardening store as a guide to help gardeners choose their perfect plants. Every part of this online garden centre is designed to be easy to use for the gardener and non- gardener alike. The plant collections are organised in themes to make is easier to select the right ones. That means that Peter’s extensive expertise is available throughout the collections pages - no need to search for long Latin names. Just find a collection type on the site that suits and see what’s available. The plants in the collections are being constantly updated as they come in and out of season. This online garden centre also has a blog so that keen gardeners can keep an eye on what Peter's up to in the garden. They can also find out what's new in the world of gardening. Ireland is beginning to go gardening mad with everybody catching the bug and there is a forum for people to exchange ideas and queries. Peter will be online once a week to answer any questions that haven’t been already answered in the forum. Visitors will even have the option of asking an expert for help on gardening topics. The idea behind the online garden centre is simplicity, Peter explains why he has broken it into two sections: “In the first section visitors can search the site by plant type or ‘collections’ The second section can be used to search for individual plants – Peter explains again: “This has a ‘Find Your Perfect Plant’ search or you can use the ‘advanced search’ tool to search for a fruit or a hedge or anything else that's available. Alternatively you can search for a plant with a particular colour in a particular month.” By providing an online garden centre with these tools Peter hopes to take the mystery out of gardening. Ireland is a small country so customers will have the option of collecting from Peter's physical garden centre in Cork – the Dunsland garden centre - or they can have the plants delivered wherever they are in Ireland. This makes gardeningonline the closest and most convenient garden centre for everyone. # # # http://gardeningonline.ie is owned and run by Peter Dowdall of Dunsland Garden Centre.
