But during the show they were left speechless as U2 bassist Adam Clayton appeared on screen.

Presenter Adam Frost flew to Ireland to visit the rock star's garden, which is located just outside of Dublin.

The 17-acre house and adjacent garden is close to the boarding school Adam attended as a child.

Over the past three decades Adam, 64, has planted a staggering 4,000 trees to transform the green space.

Speaking about his beautiful space, Adam said: "It takes my mind out of myself. I start to see the colours, see the form and I just go into a different world."

Gardeners' World viewers were seriously impressed by the U2 star's gardener and flooded social media with compliments.

One said: "Lovely piece on @gardenersworld1 about Adam Clayton’s garden in Dublin. He has created a true paradise garden."

A second wrote: "Caught a glimpse of Gardeners World during halftime and the inimitable Adam Clayton."

"I don’t like the music of U2 but Adam Clayton’s garden is absolutely stunning," said a third.

While a fourth joked: "Genuinely fascinating feature on Adam Clayton’s garden which is beautiful! Shame they didn’t talk about trees as I wanted to know if he can’t live with or without ewe."

Gardeners' World airs on BBC Two and iPlayer.
