This low maintenance sub-tropical garden was designed for entertaining, lounging by the pool and family time with pets. The entrance garden had mature native trees where very little grew beneath. Seed Landscapes totally transformed this into a lush, vibrant and private oasis, as the client says, "delights and welcomes them home every day, their guests are amazed at the change and they love it!" Planting for privacy was a must with the multiple courtyards set around the home. Raised garden beds were installed and plants were selected for height (but not too tall) structure, pops of colour and softning of the deck and fence. A perfect combination for the area that is enjoyed viewed from the lounge and dining through large glass doors. A family friendly pool area and a dappled shade courtyard with a textural stone wall waterfeature off the kitchen complete the landscape.

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.
