Garden No. 1 - Paul and Corinne Jones, 6 Fig Tree Close

Good use of interesting design and tasteful blend of indigenous plants makes this a must for the avid gardener.

Garden No. 2 - Gavin Houlden, 5 Fig Tree Close

Jan Blok is a landscaper with the design talent to transform the ordinary into extra-ordinary. This modern garden nestled in the shade of a giant fig tree reflects this vision.

Garden No. 3 - Craig and Caroline Bentley, 32 Mahogany Avenue

A garden with the focus on natural grasses interspersed with wild flowers, attracting seed-eating birds.

A delightful young garden that illustrates that with careful plant selection and natural materials, a gorgeous garden can be created in a very short space of time.

Garden No. 5 - Martyn and Tanya Harvey, 17 Mahogany Avenue

Careful use of mass planting has created a tapestry of texture, colour and interest. Many intriguing features such as a rim-flow natural rock pool and cave room add to the charm of this garden.

A secluded boma forms the focal point in this well tended garden which is a haven for birds and butterflies.
