Garden Features

There is a lovely view in here that?s cool and secluded and uses these amazing tractor seat plants to great effect.? The lawn is a plant called babies tears and it?s a tender green leafy ground cover that needs constant moisture but when it?s in the right spot it looks very lush and delightful.

Stella has found a spectacular way to welcome guests with a beautiful atrium entrance. Natural light spreads over a selection of potted flowering and foliage plants that are constantly changed for colour and greenery all year round.

The back garden is centered on this resort style swimming pool and the attention to detail here is breathtaking. The beautiful sandstone panels in the wall were all hand selected.

The achievement here is all the greater because this garden is a total renovation from front to back involving the removal of many tonnes of rock and poor soil as well as a forest of cocus palms.
