Planting and bed refreshes
We refresh garden beds with new plants, ground covers, better soil and fresh mulch.
It's worth doing when the front beds face the street, or when the old planting has thinned out.
Brisbane garden care
Soft landscaping in Brisbane
We refresh garden beds with new plants, ground covers, better soil and fresh mulch.
Tired beds get new plants picked for Brisbane conditions. We source them and improve the soil. Then the ground covers and feature plants go in, and the mulch goes down.

Access
How we get in, and any slopes or locked gates.

Close ups of the jobs, and one wide shot of the area.
Timing
A one off job or regular visits, and any date we need to work to.
When to book
What we don't build
We don't lay paving or build retaining walls. Soft landscaping is the planting side of the garden: the plants, the soil they grow in and the mulch on top.
Good times to book
- Your garden beds look tired, crowded or wrong for the space.
- Bare soil is showing, or the mulch has worn thin.
- You'd like the garden to hang together and be easy to look after.

Tell us your suburb, how much sun the beds get and what access is like. Photos of the beds help, and so does knowing whether it's for looks, a sale or less upkeep.

Jobs that need more than one service
Overgrown Paddington gardens and hedges
For an overgrown Paddington garden, start with hedge trimming. Then weed control and soft landscaping can freshen up tired beds and the entry.
Around Queenslander homes, gardens can have narrow access, layered planting and a front path. Once a hedge grows out, it crowds the house or the footpath.
New Farm and Teneriffe courtyard gardens
In small New Farm and Teneriffe gardens we trim hedges, check the irrigation and add a little soft landscaping, without crowding the space.
We work in courtyards, pots, narrow beds and front entries, some of them close to the river.
West End and Milton gardens before a sale
Before you sell or lease in West End, Milton, Spring Hill or Auchenflower, a small garden needs weeding, pruning, a mow and edging. Soft landscaping helps tired beds.
Entry paths, courtyards, front lawns and tired beds are the first things buyers and tenants see. We'll help you pick the jobs buyers will notice first.
Common problems
Garden problems we can help with
Dry beds and uneven watering
When some Brisbane garden beds stay dry with the water on, we check the irrigation for blocked emitters, overspray and gaps in coverage.
Garden tidy up before you sell
Getting your Brisbane garden ready to sell? We mow and edge the lawn, weed the beds and prune, and fresh mulch or a few new plants can freshen up tired beds.
Garden care for families and pets
In Brisbane gardens used by kids and pets, we start with the soil, compost and mulch, and we use fewer chemicals where we can.
FAQ
Common questions
Can you choose and source the plants?
Yes. Plant selection and sourcing are part of soft landscaping. The same job can take in ground covers, soil improvement and mulching.
Can the planting be done before a sale or an event?
Yes. We can smarten the beds up before listing photos, an inspection or having people over.
