Our Horticulture Course

As a whole I really enjoyed the Horticulture course, I found it very interesting and fun. I liked the different things we did week to week, and the things I learned along the way.

I liked doing work in our Sensory Garden, planting lots of different plants and flowers. Even days where we just de-weeded around the beds and the flowers themselves, I still enjoyed it as I felt like it made the garden look better and we were proud of it.



I enjoyed learning about the different bulbs or flowers we planted, like the weather conditions they need to grow, their scent and what they can be used for. 













I enjoyed the building side too, the day we made light boxes for our onion sets. I liked that because we were building their environment to live in. And we then were done we got to cut up the chives and bring them home. 












I enjoyed the trip we went on to the 'Grow Your Own' Exhibition 
in Dublin City Centre. That was very fun and I learned a lot about 
the things they had on display. We got to do our DNA test which was really interesting.















Overall, Horticulture, as a subject, was very fun yet challenging. Interesting and very educational, I defiantly enjoyed my weeks in this class.
