Blarney Castle Grounds. The castle (the keep is all that remains) sits on 60 acres encompassing a variety of diverse (even dangerous!) gardens, mystical rock formations, and serene natural areas.
The
Poison Garden. This collection of deadly plants has
representatives from all over the world including Wolfsbane, Mandrake, Ricin,
Opium, and Cannabis. Some are so toxic, they must be caged.
The Bog Garden features two waterfalls, a raised wooden boardwalk that passes through large groups of Giant Rhubarb, a willow tunnel, and many varieties of bog plants.
The Dolmen, a precariously-perched megalithic stone tomb portal.
The Witch of Blarney’s profile imposed naturally on this piece of stone.
The
Fern Garden’s grassy pathways take you through 80
varieties of ferns.
The
Wishing Steps. If you can walk down and back up these
steps with your eyes closed and without stopping, your wish will come true
within a year.
