Ep.199 MIFGS 2024 Pt.3: A Moment In Time - Peter Donegan (Irish landscape architect)
Listen now
Description
Did you get a chance to see Peter Donegan's phenomenal garden design A Moment In Time at the Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show (MIFGS) this year? We spoke about it in Ep.181 A Daydream Supported By A Series of Equations, but I wanted to touch in after the event finished to get his perspective on how everything went, and if he actually managed to pull off installing a real fighter plane into the construction. In this episode, we speak about an old-fashioned plant palette, an exquisite green roof, the smallest water feature of the Show, and the little details that made all the difference. Check the links below to see images of the garden, as well as two of his other builds that we discuss.
