The Horticultural Unit at Kildalton College:
Nursery
The commercial nursery here at Kildalton College is used
to equip students with the necessary skills and knowledge
for a career in the horticulture industry. Industry
standards are practised throughout the nursery from
propagation though to the production of quality plants for
sale to garden centres, landscape companies and other
nurseries. A wide range of plants are grown from shrubs,
trees, herbaceous perennials, alpines and bedding plants.
The facilities include a specialised propagation glasshouse,
field production, a 2,200m² glasshouse equipped with
warm bench and environmental station, polytunnel and
outdoor growing area.

Fruit & Vegetable Production
The college orchard consists of 4 hectares of dessert,
culinary and cider apples, some of which are trial
varieties. We also have other top fruit including pears,
plums, and damsons. The range of soft fruit produced in
Kildalton includes strawberries (trial varieties and
commercially used varieties) and raspberries. There are
plans to develop a blueberry section to research new
cultivars and growing techniques in the coming year. A
small section of bush fruit on site includes currants,
gooseberries and blackberries. Vegetables include carrots,
broccoli, and potatoes amongst others.
Protected Crops
Kildalton has a glasshouse and polythene tunnels
dedicated to the production of high value protected crops.
These include strawberries, food crops (lettuce, celery,
sweet potato, and early potatoes), cut flower and a range
of bedding plants. 3

Amenity
Kildalton College is situated on 16 hectares of established
gardens and woodlands. The grounds provide horticultural
students with a perfect backdrop to develop their plant
knowledge and practical skills for a career in the industry.
These skills include plant identification, plant
combinations and maintenance techniques such as
planting and pruning. Students are also involved in the
on-going development of these amenity areas of the
college as part of their course.
Sportsturf
The golf facility at Kildalton contains three par 3 greens as
well as a sports pitch. The turfgrass facilities allows
students to gain hands on practical knowledge and
experience of maintaining greens, fairways, bunkers and
sports fields to an ideal standard. Students have the
opportunity to use machinery like specialised mowers, line
marking equipment, aerators and fertiliser spreaders. 4

Cut Foliage
Kildalton has a 1 hectare trial site with over 100 different
genera of cut foliage shrubs. This plantation provides a
valuable learning opportunity for horticulture students as
these shrubs are used for plant identification and pest and
disease identifications. Agronomy practices such as plant
density and optimum pruning regimes are also carried
out. This area is used to examine the ornamental
potential of plants as well as commercial value.
Courses available at Kildalton College:
o Level 5 Certificate in Horticulture
o Level 6 Advanced Certificate in Horticulture
o Level 7 Bachelor of Science in Horticulture (run in
conjunction with Waterford Institute of Technology)
o Part –Time & Component Awards also available

Research at Kildalton College Nursery
Tree Trials at Kildalton College
Teagasc has been running ornamental tree trials in
Kildalton College since 2016. It is important to develop
knowledge of the production of a wider range of trees in
light of climate change, emerging threats from pests and
disease and changing market forces e.g. trees for smaller
spaces. The outlook is positive for tree production in
Ireland with a growing economy and replanting
opportunities from Ash dieback only developing.
To date more than 40 varieties of trees have been
selected and grown in Kildalton. They are assessed under
a range of criteria e.g. pest and disease incidence, rate of
growth ornamental factors.
Varieties selected have been sourced from specialist
nurseries in the Netherlands and Belgium.

The Nursery Team:
Conor Gallinagh
(Nursery Technician)
Conor, a Donegal native has been involved in
horticulture since a young age. A family business, a tree
nursery and garden centre inspired him into a career in
horticulture. His most passionate areas within
horticulture are plants and propagation. He graduated
from UCD in 2016 with a Level 8 Degree in Horticulture
and has gained experiences with landscapers, public
gardens and nurseries.
Fred Townsend
(Nursery Lecturer)
Fred, a past pupil of Kildalton (89-91) has always had a
passion for horticulture and especially for nursery stock
production. He worked on several nurseries both in
Ireland and in Britain before becoming the nursery
technician here in Kildalton- a post he filled for over 20
years. In more recent times he returned to college on a
part time basis and completed a Level 7 Degree in
Horticulture (WIT) and Level 8 Degree in (ITB). He
became nursery lecturer last year where he hopes his
passion, experience and close links with the industry will
help in preparing both present and future students for a
33
career in the sector.
