Garden Maintenance

Not all fertilisers are the same. They contain differing mixes of chemicals and nutrients designed for specific plants. Fertiliser that is applied too often or too much will also have an adverse effect on your plants. The plant may not even need fertiliser. We analyse each plant for appropriate soil type, water needs and sun requirements. Only then do we apply just the right amount of the right fertiliser for each plant. 

Whether in a natural setting or in your garden, trees, bushes and shrubs tend to spread in irregular and unattractive ways. Trees can send out large roots beneath footpaths that can become a trip hazard, untidy bushes can throw out a branch that can interfere with visibility along a path or road, the build-up of deciduous tree leaves can make paths slippery. Melbourne Landscape Gardening has the expertise to prune all large plants such as bushes, shrubs and trees so that they keep their shape and canopy while satisfying all council regulations. 

You don’t need to rely on people who are not trained gardeners to look after your garden. We will make sure that everything that grows, from the lawn to hanging baskets and large trees, will receive appropriate care and attention while you are away. Except for the thriving plants and well trimmed lawn you see on your return, you will hardly know we’ve been there.
