It's that time of year.......!
Time to get planning for your native verge garden. Many local governments offer rebates too, in recognition of the benefits waterwise native verge gardens bring to neighbourhoods.
Our top tips:
✔️ Site - plan around your home, street, suburb and site.
✔️ Soil - check the condition, and if it's hydrophobic
✔️ Services - check for utilities before you make a big mistake!
✔️ Sightlines - plan for pedestrian and vehicle safety and follow the rules.
✔️ Wind - use windbreaks and cooling.
✔️ Sun - plant for shade and plant for winter sun.
✔️ Species - choose endemic for plants that thrive and to create habitat and food for fauna.
If you'd like this taken all care of so you can focus on the fun bits (aka planting) you'll love our Verge.Sorted. service.
