Backyard Renovation with a Botanic Garden Vibe
in Eden Hills
+ Retaining Walls
+ Natural Stone Paving
+ Fire Pit Build
+ Local Nursery Plants
+ Suitable Turf Installation
The client had a vision to create a Botanic Garden feel with recreation park facilities. Each stage was planned and driven by the budget. There was a heavy use of natural stone products, including bluestone and sandstone. Within the planting choices, ground covers were chosen for their ability to cover large areas, along with the choice of many local plants sourced at the local Coromandel Valley Nursery, which ensured they would be best suited to the environment of Eden Hills.

The old 1970’s house in Flagstaff Hill had been recently renovated and the owners felt that to compliment this there should be a natural & colourful planting selection. This was also to compliment the large gum trees and bush surrounding the property.
