Hillsborough Garden

A seaside courtyard garden built for entertaining has become a gathering place for the family. Raised beds with bold feature planting along with built in seating incorporated into the retaining wall create a relaxed contemporary feel. Selected materials and detailing pull this well designed area together.

We first engaged with Donna early in 2012 when we wanted to transform our dark, overgrown and uninspiring back garden and deck area. We are not gardeners and we wanted something simple, elegant and easy to maintain. Donna's design exceeded all our expectations and the transformation was more than we could have hoped for. Now, 6 years on after enjoying our lovely deck, patio and garden area, we are renovating and extending our house which means we have to redesign the deck and garden. We didn't hesitate to enlist Donna again and we feel confident that she will once again create the perfect space.

Turning Ideas Into Gardens – It All Starts With Seed

At Seed we believe that gardens are for living. We love working with clients to change how they live, relate and connect in the garden, improving families lives by having a garden that works for them. It gives me great joy and satisfaction to see how the garden experience for our family of clients is transformed and to be able to share my expression in the form of beautiful living spaces for people.

Gardens are dynamic, evocative, touchable spaces. Change your environment and you will be transported. We aim to provide value to our clients by guiding them to visualise and achieve a garden they absolutely love.

Seeds' director and principal designer is Donna Stanish. Donna graduated from Unitec in 1999 with a Diploma in Landscape Design and has been designing gardens for private homes and commercial clients while gaining knowledge and experience ever since.

A hands-on passionate gardener, I have been very fortunate to travel and visit cultural and historical gardens throughout the world.
