Frequently Asked Questions
What landscaping works best in Wellington’s climate?
Wellington’s climate can be variable, with hot summers and cooler winters, so landscaping that balances durability and seasonal interest works best. Hardy native plants that tolerate heat, like bottlebrush and grevillea, thrive with minimal care. Lawns need irrigation, but drought-tolerant varieties reduce water use. Retaining walls, paving and shaded areas are also effective for sloped or exposed blocks. Combining structured hardscaping with low-maintenance greenery ensures a landscape that looks good year-round and handles changing conditions.
How can I design a low-maintenance backyard?
A low-maintenance backyard focuses on durable materials and hardy plants. Replacing large lawn areas with paving, gravel or mulch reduces mowing and watering. Natives and drought-tolerant species thrive with less care, while automatic irrigation systems save time and water. Keeping garden beds simple, using ground covers to control weeds, and avoiding high-maintenance plants also helps. Designing clear, functional zones for dining, play or relaxation makes upkeep easier while still giving you a backyard that looks neat year-round.
Do I need a landscaper or a gardener?
A landscaper and a gardener serve different purposes. A landscaper designs and builds outdoor spaces, including structural features like retaining walls, paving and garden layouts. They manage construction and create long-term plans for your yard. A gardener maintains existing spaces, focusing on mowing, planting, pruning and general upkeep. If you want to transform or redesign your outdoor area, hire a landscaper. If your space is already established and just needs care, a gardener is more suitable.
