Planned Landscape Constructions
From Beginning To Completion
 |
|
|
| The last few years has seen a slight change
in landscapes. The last few years especially has made people more
aware of the need for drought tolerant gardens. Using natives
has always been a good practice, but increasing water restrictions
has made it virtually a necessity. |
| |
| There are a number of ways to move your
landscape along with the times. |
| |
Increasing Paving Areas: Areas previously used up with plants or lawn
which are harder to keep moist these days can be reduced in size
and areas of usable pavement areas can be implemented. These can be
used for entertaining, access, as a feature or simply to reduce
maintenance.
 |
| |
Creating Natural Looking Areas: You can enhance and provide a visually
pleasing area of your garden to look at by making an area
natural-looking in appearance. Such examples could include creating
a dry river bed with river pebbles, a large pebble area with
boulder outcrops, or replicating another form of natural landscape.
Many gardens of today are using such ideas in common gardens to
lessen the areas in need of watering.

Planting Water-Wise Plants: This isn’t a new concept, and should really
be a key factor in any garden design. Plants must suit the area
they are growing in. It's just that the drought conditions of the
last few years has highlighted this fact even more. Using
Australian natives indigenous to this area is the best option
considering they have adapted to this climate and conditions, but
obviously there are also plenty of other exotic and native species
to use. Planned Landscape Constructions is happy to advise on what
plants are suitable.
There are plenty of plants available now that have been cultivated
to get better flowering, different colours, and various sizes to
suit all tastes.

Installing Water Tanks: We can
install water tanks onto your property, which can allow you to
continually water your garden, as long as your tank is holding
water. It is important where possible to install the biggest tank
that can fit as you can never have too much water. During
establishment of gardens and larger turf areas in hot periods,
watering in can use up to 5000Lt per week! Pays to get as much
water as possible.
The tanks can be hooked up to an automatic irrigation system so it
can water your yard while you are away or doing other
things.

Moving With Design Trends: We can help to employ latest design ideas,
plants and materials to make your garden stand out. From
contemporary designs with colourful rendered walls backed by
striking Cordylines and Yucca's, to Japanese-influenced gardens, to
using traditionally native plants to use within other design ideas.
If you want your garden to be a real showpiece, let us
know.
