Small to Medium Garden Care & Maintenance
This service is for ongoing care and upkeep of established gardens in the Sutherland Shire — supporting their health, structure, and overall condition over time.
Garden care focuses on maintaining what’s already in place, rather than redesigning or reworking the space. It’s ideal for clients who want their garden kept in good shape without needing a full redesign or overhaul.
What this service includes:
-
General garden maintenance and seasonal tidy-ups
-
Pruning and light shaping of established plants
-
Weed management and garden bed care
-
Basic soil care and plant health support
-
Ongoing upkeep to maintain the look and function of your garden
-
Mulching and adding other organic matter
-
Compost correction and advice
This service is designed to keep your garden healthy, balanced, and manageable — supporting the work that’s already been done, rather than changing the layout or design.
For new layouts, re-working spaces or planting design, those are offered as separate services.
Who this is for
Garden Care & Maintenance is ideal for those Sutherland Shire residents who want their garden to feel cared for and balanced, without needing to manage everything themselves.
This service is well suited to you if:
-
You enjoy your garden but don’t have the time, energy, or confidence to maintain it regularly
-
You want your garden to stay healthy, tidy, and well-kept throughout the seasons
-
You prefer ongoing, thoughtful care rather than one-off fixes
-
You’d like support maintaining an existing garden without redesigning or replanting
-
You value a calm, considered approach rather than quick or heavy-handed work
It’s designed for people who want their garden to feel looked after — not overworked — and who appreciate steady, attentive care over time

Materials & Additional Costs
Any materials required for your garden — including plants, soil, mulch, compost, edging, or other supplies — are not included in the maintenance fee.
Clients are welcome to:
-
Source and purchase materials themselves using a provided list, or
-
Have materials supplied and collected on their behalf, which will be charged separately.
Where materials are supplied by The Wildest Bloom, costs will be discussed and approved in advance. Time spent sourcing and collecting materials may also be charged as part of the service.
This approach allows flexibility and ensures you have control over both budget and materials, while keeping the focus on quality and suitability for your space.
Note: The Wildest Bloom will prioritise supporting other businesses local to the Sutherland Shire when sourcing materials.
