The g Hotel, ESPA, Jimi Shields, TTT Thirtythreetrees

TTT intensive roof garden, the most intensive green roof installation in Ireland. Situated at the heart of the building, on the second floor of the g Hotel, it is a garden of pure planting, viewed from the Relaxation Room of the hotel spa, (ESPA). The 80 year old Japanese "five needle" Bonsai Pine, (whose sister tree sits at the hotel entrance), and the 8m high wall of bamboos were hand selected at the great nurseries of northern Italy.
