Dave offers an unusual plant

No, it's not a return of the Triffids, invading Main Street, but the latest and quite unusual plant in Dave Clancy's Floral Designs shop, recently relocated near the Vincents.

It is Medinilla Magnifica, a plant from the Phillipines that will flower for between 3-5 months with minimal effort to keep it going. It can flower at any time of the year.

"It will definitely be a talking point in any home," says Dave, who believes he is the first florist in Ireland to offer it. "And it is very easy to look after—it doesn't like direct sunlight, needs moderately light watering, and that's it."
