Don't wait for someone to bring you flowers. Plant your own garden and decorate your own soul. Luther Burbank

Our expert team is well-versed in plant species, their growth requirements, and their compatibility with different soil types and climate conditions. We take into account factors such as sunlight exposure, soil pH, drainage, and your personal preferences to curate a garden that suits your taste and complements your home.

To ensure optimal growth, we pay meticulous attention to soil preparation. We analyze the soil composition and amend it as necessary to create a nutrient-rich and well-draining environment. This ensures that the plants receive the necessary nutrients and moisture for healthy development.

Once the plants are carefully selected and the soil is prepared, we proceed with the planting process. Our team follows industry best practices, ensuring proper spacing, depth, and watering techniques. We take into consideration the growth habits and specific requirements of each plant to promote their long-term health and vitality.

 

We cater to various planting styles, allowing us to create gardens that align with your preferences and suit your desired aesthetic. Here are a few of the most common planting styles we specialize in:
 

  1. Resort Style Gardens: Resort style gardens evoke a sense of luxury and relaxation, reminiscent of a tropical retreat. We incorporate lush, tropical foliage, vibrant flowers, and ornamental features such as waterfalls or swimming pools. The plant selection includes palm trees, bamboo, colorful tropical flowers, and other exotic plants that thrive in your climate. We pay attention to creating a seamless outdoor living experience that combines beauty, tranquility, and functionality.
     

  2. Formal Gardens: Formal gardens exude elegance and precision. We design and install structured layouts characterized by geometric patterns, symmetrical plantings, and well-defined lines. Formal gardens often feature well-manicured hedges, topiaries, and meticulously maintained flower beds. We carefully select plants that contribute to the formal aesthetic, such as boxwood, roses, and lavender. The result is a sophisticated and timeless garden that adds a touch of refinement to your home.
     

  3. Australian Native Gardens: Native gardens emphasize the use of plants indigenous to Australia. We work with local plant species that are well-adapted to the climate, require minimal maintenance, and support the local ecosystem. Native gardens offer sustainability benefits, conserve water, and provide habitat for local wildlife. Our team carefully selects native grasses, flowers, shrubs, and trees that create a harmonious and ecologically balanced landscape.
     

  4. Coastal Gardens: Coastal gardens embrace the natural beauty of seaside environments. We incorporate plants that can withstand salt spray, strong winds, and sandy soils. Coastal gardens often feature grasses, succulents, and drought-tolerant plants that evoke a beachy, relaxed atmosphere. Indigenous coastal plants and ornamental grasses are popular choices, creating a landscape that harmonizes with the coastal surroundings and provides a sense of tranquility.
     

  5. Contemporary Gardens: Contemporary gardens showcase sleek lines, minimalism, and a focus on architectural elements. We carefully select plants with strong visual impact, such as bold foliage, sculptural shapes, and distinctive textures. Contemporary gardens often incorporate a combination of evergreen shrubs, ornamental grasses, and structural plants. The result is a sophisticated, low-maintenance garden that complements modern architecture and exudes a sense of simplicity and elegance.
     

  6. Country Gardens: Country gardens evoke a rustic and charming ambiance, inspired by the countryside. We create a relaxed and informal atmosphere with a mix of flowering perennials, herbs, and ornamental grasses. Country gardens often include features like picket fences, climbing roses, and cottage-style plants. The emphasis is on creating a welcoming and romantic space that exudes a sense of nostalgia and natural beauty.
     

  7. Low Maintenance Gardens: Low maintenance gardens are designed for those seeking a beautiful landscape without extensive upkeep. We carefully select plants that require minimal watering, pruning, and maintenance. Drought-tolerant plants, succulents, and native species are often incorporated to reduce water usage and enhance sustainability. These gardens feature well-planned layouts, strategic plant selection, and efficient irrigation systems, allowing you to enjoy a visually appealing landscape with less effort.
     

  8. Free Form Hybrid Gardens: Free form hybrid gardens are a blend of various planting styles, resulting in an eclectic and unique landscape. We combine elements from different styles, incorporating a mix of plant textures, colors, and forms. This style allows for creativity and personal expression, resulting in a garden that reflects your individual taste and preferences. The plant selection can include a combination of native species, cottage garden flowers, and contemporary architectural plants, creating a harmonious and visually stimulating environment.
     

  9. Palm Springs Gardens: Palm Springs gardens are inspired by the iconic desert oasis of Palm Springs, California. These gardens embrace the desert landscape and exude a stylish, mid-century modern aesthetic. They feature a combination of drought-tolerant plants, cacti, succulents, and palms that thrive in arid environments.
