Project Overview This landscaping project aims to transform a fully paved -square-meter garden into a vibrant and inviting outdoor space. The design incorporates a lush lawn, large potted plants, a braai area, and various elements to enhance the garden’s overall aesthetic. 1. Lawn Garden Design Preparation: Remove a portion of the existing pavement to create space for the lawn. Ensure proper soil preparation and drainage to support healthy grass growth. Lawn Installation: Select a durable, low-maintenance grass variety suitable for the local climate. Lay sod or plant grass seeds to establish a lush green lawn. Edging: Install garden edging to define the lawn area and separate it from other garden elements. 2. Big Potted Plants Selection: Choose a variety of large, decorative pots that complement the garden's design. Opt for hardy plants that thrive in the local environment and require minimal maintenance. Placement: Arrange the potted plants strategically around the garden to create focal points and add height and dimension. Consider placing them near the lawn's edges, along pathways, or in corners. Plant Choices: Include a mix of flowering plants, shrubs, and small trees to add color, texture, and visual interest. 3. Braai Area Design Location: Identify a suitable location for the braai area that is easily accessible and provides a comfortable setting for social gatherings. Construction: Build a stylish and functional braai structure, ensuring it is safe and compliant with local regulations. Incorporate features such as a built-in grill, prep counters, and storage. Seating and Dining: Create a seating area around the braai with outdoor furniture that is durable and weather-resistant. Include a dining table and chairs for alfresco meals. Lighting: Install outdoor lighting to enhance the ambience and functionality of the braai area during evening use. 4. Beautifying the Garden Pathways: Create pathways using natural stone, gravel, or stepping stones to connect different garden areas. This adds structure and guides visitors through the space. Flower Beds: Design flower beds with a variety of plants that bloom in different seasons, ensuring year-round color and interest. Use mulch to retain soil moisture and reduce weed growth. Water Feature: Consider adding a small water feature, such as a fountain or pond, to create a calming atmosphere and attract wildlife. Decorative Elements: Incorporate garden art, sculptures, or decorative lighting to personalize the space and add unique touches. Conclusion This landscaping project aims to create a cohesive and inviting garden space that blends natural elements with functional design. By incorporating a lush lawn, large potted plants, a well-designed braai area, and various beautifying features, the garden will become a lively and enjoyable outdoor retreat.
We in a 22ha farm, the place that needs landscaping design cost of installation is where there iwill be buildings for business mostly. See concept on SDP PLAN attached. Would love to keep the farm nature feel as I want to manain nature healing concept. It would need to be discussed upon site visit.
We recently bought a home and have been renovating it. The garden is overgrown with weeds and we have tried multiple garden services to manage the garden and grass but there has been no improvement. I am looking for a consultation on some landscaping ideas for the garden and a quote for the work. I like simple, indigenous, low-maintenance gardens.
It’s really about how many days you think it would take to complete the project. The initial set up involves Irrigation system Compost section Veggie domes - I’ll also look into this - ready made boxes vs building ourselves Waterwise garden under palm. Assessing current plant layout & reconfiguration if necessary. Beautifying garden with creative imagination Think about - don’t rush.
This is for a sloped garden. I would like to design and install a flat lawn on one of the levels, this would require digging and leveling as well as pathways and mini walls. The size of the lawn would be approximately /sqm. See two pictures attached for the current sloped garden. Also see attached a reference for a flat lawn that I want to achieve from a neighboring house.
I would like to get a quote for having irrigation put in at my complex so I could take it to the body corp for approval. I would like 3 detailed quotes to present for approval. One just basic system with tap that you have to manually do the connection, One with popups and a timer option, and one with management system.

Hi, I am situated in Parkrand, Boksburg. 90 % of our property is paved We need a garden service that knows how to work garden beds (the difference between a weed and a plant etc). Our garden has pretty much been demolished by our soon to be "ex-garden service". We need people who know what they're doing and having a green-thumb is not necessary, but an added bonus. We were paying R monthly for one weekly visit and we no longer have a garden to be proud of, unfortunately. I hope you can assist. Regards,
We're looking to completely redesign our outdoor space. The current garden is overgrown and outdated, and we'd like to create a modern, low-maintenance design with a mix of indigenous plants, paving, and possibly an irrigation system. We’d also like to add some outdoor seating and improve the lighting for evening use.
We have just cleared out this area as it was looking tatty. We would like to get some design ideas for this area situated at our front entrance. Garden is generally English country with curved pathway, roses, hydrangeas...free flowing. No pesticides used. Looking for ideas for low maintenance, pretty entrance. Perhaps seating area and pond. Creeper to cover garage wall, maybe tickey or Virginia for Autumn colour. Area is slightly sloped. Landscaping not required, just ideas. Thanks.
