At Arboretum we’re proud of our Irish roots and our support for local artisans and producers. Our business is rooted in Ireland’s rich culture and heritage.
Starting over 40 years ago in The Doyle’s back garden, Rachel has developed Arboretum into a top-tier garden centre through her passion and dedication. As a qualified horticulturist with strong business skills, Rachel has made significant contributions to the retail and gardening sectors in Ireland.
As a family-run business, Rachel, alongside her husband Frank and their two sons Fergal and Barry, has nurtured a culture of warmth, inclusivity, and excellence. Together with our team across three locations – Arboretum Co Carlow, Kilquade, Co Wicklow, and Urban Green, Dublin 1 – they are key to our success.
As Ireland’s first 5* garden centre, Arboretum has not just raised the bar but redefined the very essence of garden retail. Our commitment to quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction has made us the go-to destination for gardening enthusiasts and novices alike.
With over 150 dedicated employees and many loyal customers, people are at the core of everything we do. We cherish our community, and it’s their unwavering support is crucial to our continued success.
At Arboretum we embrace change and innovation. Under the leadership of Rachel, Fergal and Barry, and with our team’s commitment we continually strive to lead and transform garden retail.
Join us on this journey as we explore and celebrate all things Irish. Together, let’s cultivate a brighter, greener future for generations to come.
