Landscaping in Erskineville After Home Renovation

At Appleseed Gardening, we excel in transforming outdoor spaces into lush, inviting gardens. Our recent gardening project in Erskineville involved rejuvenating a front garden post-renovation.

Initial Condition

The front garden of this Erskineville home was in dire need of attention after the house renovation. The clients desired a low-maintenance yet lush and full garden to complement their newly renovated home.

Clearing & Preparation

We began by clearing the existing area, which involved removing any old or unwanted plants, debris, and weeds. This was followed by preparing the soil to ensure it would support new plant life effectively. Enriching the soil with organic compost and natural soil enhancers was a crucial step to create a fertile environment for the new plants to thrive.

Plant Selection & Design

To achieve a lush appearance, we carefully selected a variety of plants known for their resilience and aesthetic appeal. Our choices included Philodendron xanadu, Raphiolepis, Giant Mondo Grass, and Gardenia florida.

These plants were mass-planted to create a dense, lush look while ensuring the garden remained low maintenance. The Philodendron xanadu provided dense foliage, the Raphiolepis offered hardy structure, the Giant Mondo Grass added textural contrast, and the Gardenia florida brought fragrant blooms.

Installing a Feature Bed

In one corner of the garden, we introduced a raised circular bed made from corten steel, which added a modern and striking focal point to the design. This bed was filled with rich soil and planted with a selection of seasonal herbs. Not only did this provide visual interest, but it also served a practical purpose, allowing the clients to enjoy fresh herbs from their garden.

Final Touches

To complete the transformation, we ensured the garden was well-mulched. Mulching helps to retain moisture in the soil, suppress weeds, and enhance the overall health of the plants. We used high-quality mulch that not only provided these benefits but also added to the aesthetic appeal of the garden.

The final result was a stunning, lush garden that significantly enhanced the home’s curb appeal while being easy to care for. This landscaping project in Erskineville exemplifies our commitment to creating beautiful, functional outdoor spaces that meet our client’s needs and exceed their expectations.

By focusing on low-maintenance yet lush planting, we provided a solution that combines beauty and practicality, ensuring the garden will continue to flourish with minimal effort from the homeowners.
