My story
After doing this for the better part of 20 years, I can honestly say that I have the best job in the world! Come rain or shine, I prefer to be outside.
Yes, some summers I look a little more like a car-guard than a landscaper, but that's where I'm in my element.
Go green... pink and purple!
Landscaping follows trends as do all things and presently it's all about water-wise, sustainable gardening. It's amazing what beauty can come from using endemic and indigenous plants. Particularly when they are planted in swathes of colour or texture.
Be inspired
It's all about originality. I'm all for exchanging views and information with other landscapers and getting inspired by their ideas.
I believe that as steel sharpens steel, so creative interchange begets more creativity. There's nothing quite like getting fired up about a project with like-minded enthusiasts!
