Waterford is set to be well represented at this year’s Bord Bia Bloom in Phoenix Park where two exhibitors from the Déise will partake in this year’s line up in Dublin.

Shady Plants Nursery from Clashmore and Coffee House Lane of Waterford City will attend the festival of flowers, food and fun.

The festival expects to welcome over 100,000 visitors across its 70-acre site, which will play host to 21 spectacular new show gardens at the centre of the experience.

Clashmore’s Shady Plants nursery will exhibit breathtaking plants in the Nursery Village. Shady Plants is a family run award-winning nursery specialising in ferns, hostas, and shade loving plant species.

Visitors to Bloom can meet more than 100 of Ireland’s top food and craft drink producers at the Food Village and Bloom Inn, including Artisan Coffee Roaster Coffee House Lane from Waterford City.

At the event, there will be daily stage schedules, an interactive site map, meanwhile activities for younger visitors will be on offer with fun, educational and interactive workshops at the Budding Bloomers Children’s Area.

Speaking today, Laura Douglas, Head of Bloom and Brand Partnerships, Bord Bia said:
