WILDFLOWER MEADOW PLANTING HAS BECOME VERY POPULAR - TEMPLE COTTAGES BROADSTONE

Locals refer to King's Inns and the attached park as "The Temple" and I have failed to discover why and then today I noticed that a row of cottages beside the park is named "Temple Cottages". By the way this is where Robert Ballagh lives ... he is a famous artist who sold his bass guitar to Phil Lynott when he quit a showband in 1967

Since the lockdown began I have noticed that Dublin City Council has adopted the idea of planting wildflower meadows in areas that were, in general, neglected or difficult to maintain.

A wildflower is a flower that grows in the wild, meaning it was not intentionally seeded or planted. Yet "wildflower" meadows of a few mixed species are sold in seed packets. The term implies that the plant probably is neither a hybrid nor a selected cultivar that is in any way different from the way it appears in the wild as a native plant, even if it is growing where it would not naturally.
