Aerial view of Kenmare Bay. Kenmare is situated to the right of the Suspension Bridge

Our garden is perched on top of a natural outcrop of craggy limestone, creating a perfect setting for the many large and small plants that have been planted in its nooks and crannies. We have included  pictures of some of them.  No matter what time of the year you visit there is nearly always something in flower to add a little colour

House Leek Flower 

 

Pratia ("Country Park")

 

Known to many as the butterfly plant, it attracts hordes of butterflies to its lightly scented plumes when in flower.The common buddlia is represented by two varieties the white (shown here)and the more vivacious purple.

Buddlia          ("Davidii "Peace")

Spreading naturally

alongside the roadways

is the  more common colour ofbright orange which we have, alongside the more vibrant Lucifer in a bright red 

n this part of Kerry it nearly takes on  the role of National plant during the flowering period of mid August to early September

 

 Crocosmia  ("Lucifer")

 

 

Pinksedum           ("StoneCrop")

 

After living in Australia

 for five years we had to include

 something that we had in our

 garden in Perth. The Bottlebrush

 is at its best when it has had a

 dry spell before flowering in July
