Citroen sponsors alternative garden for Bloom


Citroen Ireland has sponsored a 'Power of One' garden from the upcoming Bord Bia Bloom festival event in Dublin, writes Brian Byrne. The alternative urban garden aims to show how individuals can help fight global warming.

The sponsorship with garden designer Nicola Haines coincides with the launch here of the new Citroen eC4 X electric car.

The garden includes a biodiverse turf roof, and planting to help absorb pollution and clean the air.

Water features and appropriate planting will help to absorb traffic noise, while rainfall capture and storage will contribute to adding oxygen to the atmosphere and provide a wild-life friendly pond.

The Bord Blia Bloom event in Dublin's Phoenix Park is now in its 17th year.
