Deep In the heart of County Wicklow (the Garden of Ireland) lies the perfect escape from the stresses of everyday life.
Arboretum Kilquade is Arboretum’s second store, opened in 2015 on the site of the National Garden Exhibition Centre. Arboretum Kilquade is currently undergoing a major makeover, a transformation that will result in a state-of-the-art store offering an outstanding gardening and lifestyle shopping experience.
Rest assured that the shop, café and garden centre will remain open during the refurbishment. You can expect to find a wide array of seasonal plants in our spacious outdoor area, while the shop will house house gardening staples and giftware. The excellent hot and cold lunches, scones and sweet treats we’re famous for will be available every day in our scaled-back café. The exhibition gardens will be closed until the works are completed. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
What to expect from spring 2024
Along with more plants, more gardening products, more garden furniture and more Weber barbecues, the new-look Arboretum Kilquade will offer an extensive range of indoor plants, a food hall, a fashion boutique and a health and wellness department as well as carefully curated ranges of homeware and giftware. The hugely popular Rachel’s Secret Garden cafe will accommodate 100 diners and overlook the exhibition gardens.
When finished, the new development, including the site’s existing 17 exhibition gardens, will span six acres! What’s more, the entire retail and plant area will be roofed, making shopping a pleasure at any time of the year.
Thank you for your patience! We can’t wait to unveil our beautiful new store in 2024.
