Title: Ireland Glenkeen Garden
Description: "For gardeners, Roaring Water Bay in West Cork in Ireland is a paradise: the Gulf Stream, long hours of sunshine and the prevailing micro-climate permit unique plants, even palm trees, to grow there.

Five photographers show the growth and development of the garden from their own personal point of view."--

"Glenkeen is a very remarkable place, designed with passion by Ulrike Crespo and Michael Satke. The garden enchants visitors with its luxuriant vegetation and landscape architecture of copses, avenues and ponds as well as the 'Wild Meadows' project by star garden designer Piet Oudolf. 'Gatesculptures' by unusual artists blend in harmoniously; bridges and garden furniture are trend-setting. The 'Wild Gardening' in perfection is captured by the photographers in atmospheric daylight and night shots, throughout the changing seasons and with countless details."--

"For gardeners, Ireland’s Roaring Water Bay, in West Cork, is a paradise: buoyed by the Gulf Stream and long hours of sunshine, its micro-climate permits unique plants—even palm trees—to grow and thrive there. And the past twenty years have seen the slow creation of a true masterpiece of “wild gardening” in the area: Glenkeen Garden, designed by Ulrike Crespo and Michael Satke. This book brings five photographers together to document the growth and development of the garden, each bringing to the project his own personal viewpoint. The result, a stunning and limited edition boxed set featuring several fold-outs, will enchant garden lovers with its images of luxuriant vegetation, innovative landscape architecture—including copses, avenues, and ponds—and inviting bridges and garden furniture, all depicted in a range of situations and styles, including the richly atmospheric late-summer daylight and the sparkling mysteries of nighttime."--
