Spring Garden Checklist 🌸🦋☀️

Get your garden spring-ready with these essential tasks:

💦 Irrigation System Check: Ensure your irrigation system is working optimally. Service the solenoids, sprinklers, booster pumps, and borehole pumps in advance for a seamless spring transition.

🌳 Hedge and Tree Planting: Now is the prime time for setting hedges and trees. Plant them while the sap is not rising to minimise distress and promote healthier growth and establishment.

✂️ Garden Pruning and Mulching: Trim back overgrown areas to prepare for the new season. Add compost mulch to enrich the soil with vital nutrients, ensuring robust spring growth. 🌱🌿

🏡 Lawn Care: Show your lawn some love by aerating, scarifying, and top-dressing. These steps promote healthy root growth, reduce thatch build-up, and improve overall soil quality.

🌱 Quality Soil Preparation: Enhance soil fertility with quality compost and appropriate fertilisers to give your spring garden a solid foundation.

Let’s make this spring one to remember! 🌷💚

❄️Winter is here, but that doesn't mean your garden has to suffer! At African Landscape Design, we're passionate about creating sustainable gardens that can withstand even the heaviest of rainfalls. Here are our top tips for keeping your garden healthy and beautiful during Cape Town's rainy season 🌧️

1️⃣ Go native: Indigenous plants like fynbos and proteas are adapted to thrive in Cape Town's winter conditions. They can withstand heavy rainfall and fluctuating temperatures, making them the perfect choice for your winter garden.

2️⃣ Drain away: Improving drainage can help prevent issues like root rot, which can occur in waterlogged soil. Adding organic matter like compost or creating raised beds can promote proper drainage and keep your plants healthy.

3️⃣ Stay vigilant: Wet weather can attract pests and fungal diseases. Regularly check your plants and treat any signs of infection promptly with eco-friendly methods to keep your garden thriving.

4️⃣ Trim and support: Pruning plants to improve airflow and supporting tall or heavy plants can help prevent damage from strong winds and heavy rainfall.

5️⃣ Collect rainwater: Harvesting rainwater in barrels or tanks can keep your garden flourishing during drier spells while reducing your reliance on municipal water supplies.

6️⃣ Water wisely: During heavy rainfall, it's important to avoid over-watering. Adjust your watering schedule accordingly to keep your plants healthy.

7️⃣ Protect your plants: Cover delicate or potted plants and move them to sheltered areas to safeguard them from excess rainfall and wind damage.

Take charge of your garden and make the most of Cape Town's rainy season.

Before, During and After🌸🌱✨

We recently had the pleasure of partnering with Van Blerk Structural Engineering to install a lush, inviting garden tailored to their needs.

Leveraging our extensive expertise in sustainable landscaping and water conservation, we enriched the soil using industry-leading Master Organics compost and installed Revelstone cobble edging to define the beds and lawn areas.

The plant selection was a delightful mix primarily sourced from , complemented by carefully chosen species from and . These plants will flourish and harmoniously maintain the garden's structure during the winter months, with clipped spheres placed throughout the beds for added visual appeal.

To complete this transformation, a stunning water feature was installed. Designed by the client and skillfully installed by their builder, the framework was repurposed from the existing water feature, perfectly aligning with our sustainability principles.

We are honoured to be working in one of Cape Town's most breathtaking gardens.
This hidden gem is home to a mesmerizing collection of majestic trees, and we can't help but be in awe of the remarkable copper beech, magnolias, strawberry trees, swamp cypress, and flowering gums that grace this landscape.🌳

The enchantment doesn't stop there—the garden is adorned with captivating swathes of Camellias and Azaleas, creating a vibrant and colourful journey along the driveway and surrounding areas. It's truly a sight to behold!

At the heart of this splendid oasis lies a magnificent rose garden and an expansive lawn that perfectly complements the grandeur of the house. 🌹

We take great pride in our weekly maintenance and ongoing restoration projects as we work diligently to bring this historic garden back into its prime. Our expert team is passionate about repairing old irrigation systems and ensuring the efficient operation of the pumps, keeping the garden thriving year-round.

We had the incredible opportunity to work at Rallim Pre I Prep I Secondary in Sunningdale, where we embarked on a project of installing over a kilometer of Tensile Cables while stringing six pergolas.

Our team took great pride in creating a seamless and visually stunning environment that complements the school's ambiance. The combination of the modern aesthetic of the cables and the natural beauty of Table Mountain truly makes for an awe-inspiring sight.

We couldn't be happier with the outcome of this project, and we're grateful to have contributed to the enhancement of Rallim Prep School's outdoor spaces.🌄

Spring Checklist 🌸🦋☀️

Get your garden spring-ready with these essential tasks:

💦Ensure a flourishing spring garden by checking over your irrigation system. Make sure everything is working optimally by servicing solenoids, sprinklers, booster pumps, and borehole pumps. Preparing in advance will ensure a seamless transition into spring.

🌳Take advantage of the plant's natural cycle and set hedging and trees now. With the sap stopped rising, plants experience the least distress, resulting in healthier growth and establishment.

✂️It's time to give your garden some TLC! Start pruning back overgrown areas and get your garden ready for the new season. Additionally, consider compost mulching your garden to provide vital nutrients that will enrich the soil and promote robust spring growth. 🌱🌿
