Embracing Cacti in your Mediterranean Garden
What is your vision of a Mediterranean garden? For most it’s probably vibrant bougainvillaea, lavender fields and olive trees. But what about cacti and succulents? Before you get all prickly, there’s good reasons why these plants are being increasingly embraced in Mediterranean landscapes.
The Artful Garden
explore, contemplate, revel in whimsy or celebrate the tapestry of culture and nature. All of this is possible with thoughtfully selected and placed pieces of art in your garden. Sculpture or sundial, bench or fountain, artwork enriches your outdoor space and invites you to engage in your surroundings in a more meaningful way.
The Aromatic Garden
All Mediterranean gardens, big or small, should have a space filled with aromatic plants and herbs. Besides practical and therapeutic uses, aromatic plants create a beautiful garden that can be enjoyed with all your senses. Contrasting shades of green and texture play against each other. Springtime blossoms scent the air and draw pollinating butterflies and buzzing bees. And the purple blooms of lavender and rosemary add pops of colour.
Illuminating Beauty: Outdoor Lighting for Mediterranean Gardens
When the sun sets on your Mediterranean garden, an opportunity arises to transform your outdoor spaces into a night-time realm of beauty. With effective outdoor lighting, you can highlight unique features and allow your garden’s charm to continue captivating you into its folds, long after dusk.
