No, he needs to adjust to local conditions and grow plants that
love
wet acid peaty soil and thrive there, such as azaleas, rhododendron,
gunnera. There are many fabulous gardens in Ireland Your other advice
is good. Plus, he should get visiting local gardens which are open to
the public, (with a notebook) and go to the local library to check out
the gardening books.
