🌱 Low maintenance garden Australia & NO lawn! Behind the Garden Gate - Garden Ideas | Garden Design

In the leafy inner north-eastern suburbs of Melbourne, a remarkable low maintenance garden thrives, predominantly adorned with Australian native plants. Designed with a busy family in mind, the goal was to create an easily manageable garden. The owner specifically desired a "overgrown" and rambling aesthetic, avoiding clipped hedges and structured forms. With this vision in mind, garden designer Nadia Cole from Platylobium Garden Design brought the newly renovated home to life by designing a garden that enveloped the property.
This garden is a delightful amalgamation of contrasting elements. The front garden embraces openness, inviting interaction with the neighbourhood through a slate timber fence that beckons passersby to stop and engage in friendly conversations. On the other hand, the backyard provides a secluded and private sanctuary. The cozy courtyard exudes a welcoming ambiance, and the plant selections consist of soft ground covers and taller trees along the boundaries, ensuring enhanced privacy.
Experience the tranquility and beauty of this low maintenance Australian native garden, thoughtfully designed to harmonise with the needs of a busy family. Perhaps the answer to your garden design questions are in this video! Let me know your favourite part in the caption :-)

Lovely garden and interesting commentry but please tone down the distracting music.

[@BeanThereDugThat]

Thanks for your feedback - you’ll have to let me know if the music is too loud for your liking in my latest videos too. Cheers

[@CuriousMouse1988]

I think the music is quite nice when you’re talking except that it was a bit loud during the transition. I like your voice though, it’s really soothing and nice to hear. Cheers from Canberra.

[@BeanThereDugThat]

great thanks again for the feedback :-) and so glad to hear you like my voice - thanks @@CuriousMouse1988

[@user-vy8vm5kj7t]

thanks for the video nice garden! - just suggestions pls balance the audio, the music too loud compared to the speaking and if the hosts can slow down the speed of talking

[@BeanThereDugThat]

@@user-vy8vm5kj7t thanks for your feedback. This was my first video ever - I’ve fixed the audio and voice balance on the other videos 👌🏼 hope you enjoy them

[@emmatreadgold4513]

I can imagine the work in preparation to put these together, well done and look forward to more!

[@BeanThereDugThat]

They are so FUN to put together too which is the best bit :-) Thanks for your lovely feedback. More episodes coming sooooooon

[@uppanadam]

Hmmm!! Think I'd rather some colour in the garden to be honest!!

[@BeanThereDugThat]

It certainly wasn't in full bloom when i filmed this - but many of the plants would flower throughout spring and summer. The owners preferred not overly showy blooms though, so yes it's more of a muted planting palette. But each to their own :-)

[@roslynm5492]

Beautiful house and garden. They should open the garden though open gardens Victoria.

[@BeanThereDugThat]

Thanks Roslyn, yes they probably should! I’ve got friends who volunteer at OGV I’m sure I’ll be watching to suss out potential gardens 🤩

[@MargaretForrest-q9i]

Excellent design. Suitable also for couples with no children, and do not want to mow lawns.

[@BeanThereDugThat]

Such a great design isn't it! And yes the perfect garden for people who don't want to mow lawns :-)

[@plasmapanasonic4741]
