Powerscourt garden is a glorious place to visit! Head gardener,Alex Slazenger shares with us some of his insider knowledge.
GARDENER PROFILE:
I grew up at Powers court Estate and spent my childhood along the river walk and gardens. Without realising it, this set in motion my desire to spend time outside as a career; I thought this is something that I can do for the rest of my life. What I was happiest doing as a child – being outside – led to landscaping, gardening and a love of watching things grow and develop. I went on to do a BSc in horticulture at the Botanic Gardens in Glasnevin and have worked for 12 years in the industry from landscaping to nursery production and maintenance. I have been Head Gardener at Powers court for 2 years now.
