Small to Medium Garden Consultation & Advice
Sutherland Shire
A garden consultation is a chance to step back, look at your space with fresh eyes, and get clear, practical guidance tailored to a small to medium garden.
These gardens often sit at the heart of a home — but they can also feel overwhelming. You might know something isn’t working, feel unsure where to focus your efforts, or want professional input before making changes or investing further.
This service is a collaborative, on-site conversation focused on understanding how your garden functions now, how you use it, and what’s realistically achievable. Rather than jumping straight into design or major work, a consultation helps clarify direction and identify the most effective next step.
What's included
During your consultation, we’ll cover:
-
Assessment of your existing garden and layout
-
Light, soil and site conditions
-
Plant health and suitability
-
What’s working well and what’s not
-
Practical planting suggestions
-
Seasonal care guidance
-
Ideas to improve structure, flow and function
-
Advice on low-maintenance and sustainable approaches
-
Options for pesticide-free, regenerative garden care
You’ll have clear next steps, whether you plan to do the work yourself or bring in support later.

-
Small to medium residential gardens
