Super Garden

Super Garden is a returning, feel-good competition format where five aspiring designers are each given a garden in a new social housing estate, tasked with transforming it into a standout outdoor space in just three weeks. Working with the same budget and similar plots, the challenge becomes a pure test of creativity, vision and execution.

Each episode follows one designer’s journey, from concept to completion, as they create a garden tailored to the real needs of the homeowners. These aren’t abstract builds; they are deeply personal spaces designed to improve everyday life, adding emotional weight to every decision.

An expert judging panel evaluates each garden on design, build quality and overall impact, before selecting the ultimate winner in a final showdown. The prize is career-defining: the winning garden is recreated at Bord Bia Bloom, Ireland’s premier garden showcase, offering national exposure and a launchpad into the industry.
