LANDSCAPE PLANTING DESIGN
Our landscape strategy is centred around a native planting selection and plants that help provide food for local biodiversity heroes throughout the year. Native plants, often drought-resistant, contribute to a seasonal biodiverse landscape, reflecting our ecological approach and commitment to sustainability. Various types of native shrubs and grasses are critical for birds, pollinators and insects. This layered landscape becomes their sanctuary, encouraging nature to become a part of our towns and cities.
