Plant Selection & Planting Schemes

At Colin Green’s Landscaping services we specialise in garden renovation and a large part of that is plant selection & planting schemes. Colin is a qualified Horticulturalist operating since 1986. Colin has vast plant knowledge and with the back up of contacts in most of the local major nurseries, Colin can find the right plant for any situation.

Creating the desired effect in your garden comes from creating the right theme. Whether you want to create a specific theme such as a Tropical garden or a Cottage garden or any of the more common themes Colin can advise and supply the plants needed. Most renovated gardens are done in a more individual style. When the renovation is done the plants the garden owners like the most are kept, then compatible plants are selected to combine into the garden theme, creating a garden that is unique to the owners and beautiful to look at. Part of this process is identifying the environmental factors that affect the garden, such as shade or sunlight, aspect, soil types, and the amount of time the garden owners want to spend in the garden. When all these factors are taken into consideration the right plants can be selected that will grow well, look good and take little or a lot of your time in maintenance, depending on your preference.

If you are looking to renovate your garden and you need help with plant selection & planting schemes, contact Colin Green’s Landscaping today and let us help with creating the unique and beautiful garden you have always wanted.

Tropical plants

Tropical plants give a lush feel to the garden. Most tropical plants grow well in shady areas and many have colourful leaves as well as flowers. The colourful leaves add colour to the garden year round, where flowers usually only last for a short time.
