Le Roi du Jardin

National Botanic Gardens (Ireland)

The National Botanic Gardens at Glasnevin in Dublin hold plant collections from habitats around the world. Their restored historic glasshouses include Richard Turner’s Curvilinear Range and the Great Palm House. The gardens have been associated with their counterpart at Kilmacurragh in County Wicklow since 1854.

Editorial interpretation: the planted glasshouses allow the living collection and its architectural setting to be read together. The connection with Kilmacurragh gives the institution a wider geographical context, while Glasnevin remains a distinct Dublin site.
