One of the most important tips for eco-friendly landscaping is to select native plants and grasses that are well adapted to your climate.
Choose Native Plants
Native species require less water and fertiliser, and provide shelter and food sources for beneficial insects, birds, and animals.
Composting
Compost improves soil fertility while reducing the need for chemical fertilisers.
Water Conservation
Install water butts to collect rainwater. Use drip irrigation systems rather than sprinklers.
Wildlife-Friendly Features
Add a pond, bug hotel, or log pile to encourage biodiversity.
Sustainable Materials
Choose reclaimed or locally sourced materials for garden structures.
