You don\u2019t have to be a rocket scientist; you don\u2019t even have to be qualified really! If you apply these rules to your garden, they work for everyone. It\u2019s really simple.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Research &amp; Development <\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<p>Have an honest look at the hobbies and interests you enjoy. Perhaps you\u2019re interested in sustainability and want to explore agriculture, permaculture or aquaculture. Maybe you want your garden to reflect a Japanese bonsai tree; meticulously crafted and artistically presented. If you have kids or dogs, how do you want them to enjoy this outdoor space?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">The possibilities are endless and often a garden is the perfect canvas to paint your identity on. Write out everything on paper and work all these elements into your final design. Your thought cloud should look like this:<\/p>\n<table class=\" aligncenter\" style=\"height: 117px\" width=\"500\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"151\">coyfish<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">\u00a0kids<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">caravan<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">storage<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"151\">concrete<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">\u00a0dogs<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">motorbikes<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">entertainment<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"151\">agriculture<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">\u00a0vegetables<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">presentation<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">water features<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"151\">storage<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">\u00a0permaculture<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">swimming<\/td>\n<td width=\"144\">decking<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Find the running themes that connect all these words together and create a site plan to reflect this.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8910\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brisbanehomeshow.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Texture-e1576139779292.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeshows.com.au\/sydney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/12\/Texture-e1576139779292.png 500w, https:\/\/homeshows.com.au\/sydney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/12\/Texture-e1576139779292-300x201.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Site Plan <\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThe site plan doesn\u2019t have to be accurate,\u201d said Matthew, always one to take the formalities out of his trade. In other words, you don\u2019t need to have every shrub mapped out to the nearest millimetre. \u201cIt\u2019s more about spatial awareness,\u201d creating a space that is balanced and inviting.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s easier said than done; many people fall into the trap of overestimating garden space. A 3m x 3m plot can get very crowded, very quickly.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Feature plant <\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<p>Instead of spending thousands of dollars on rows of trees, invest in just a single impressive feature tree like a Mulberry or Elm. Like the sun, your garden should rotate around this feature tree. Smaller ornamentals like grass or lomandra can be scattered around the garden and will grow quickly in just 6 &#8211; 12 months.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Brick paving or aggregate? <\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<p>A word of warning from our master landscaper, \u201cAs soon as you cut a strip in aggregate, they are forever there.\u201d The major drawcard for aggregate paving is its longevity. It will outlast pavers for decades. It\u2019s not surprising then, that solid paving is inflexible. You will never be able to lay down piping, telecommunications or plumbing again. So, make sure you plan correctly!<\/p>\n<p>The alternative is brick paving which \u201cgives you the opportunity to lift your pavers, change your pavers, effect your repairs and put it back in situ. No-one will ever know!\u201d Proclaimed Matthew.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8909\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brisbanehomeshow.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Lighting-MJD-e1576139725496.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeshows.com.au\/sydney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/12\/Lighting-MJD-e1576139725496.png 500w, https:\/\/homeshows.com.au\/sydney\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/12\/Lighting-MJD-e1576139725496-300x199.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Lighting <\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<p>Create some direction in your garden by pretending it\u2019s an airport landing strip. Use solar lighting bollards to guide visitors through the space to eventually land on the gazebo sofa.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Textures <\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<p>More the case in WA; limestones and sandstones have been \u2018done to death\u2019. An intriguing garden balances textures and colours skilfully. Move towards granites, timbers and steel for edging. Mixed with your greens, the colour palette should be diverse and create contrast.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Biodiverse planting <\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<p>Matthew remarked, \u201cThere\u2019s been a huge push for native plants which is absolutely warranted. But don\u2019t be afraid to mix it up.\u201d The easiest way to test flower selection is going to Bunnings and picking out several species. Mix and match until you find the right selection, then buy in bulk.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Planting and layout <\/strong>?<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThere is no such thing as a low maintenance garden,\u201d Matthew stated who joked that even a concrete garden will gather dust. Think seasonally and adopt common-sense policies like <em>not<\/em> planting a tree next to a swimming pool.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Recreational ponds <\/strong>\u26f2\ufe0f<\/h2>\n<p>Garden ponds have caused a storm around the world, yet have failed to take off in Australia. Acting in unison with nature, the ponds require no chlorine. Plants, fish and bacterial filters clean the water similar to wetlands. So, you can swim, fish and attract wildlife all in the comfort of your backyard.<\/p>\n<p>Watch Matthew Daly of MJD Landscapes and Design presenting on landscaping for WA, water features and recreational ponds.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">Join the <strong>Home Show Club<\/strong>\u00a0and you&#8217;ll be the very first to receive more stories like this, free tickets, special offers, inspiration and more!<\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #518e90\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brisbanehomeshow.com.au\/subscribe\/\"><span style=\"color: #00ccff\">Brisbane<\/span><\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.melbournehomeshow.com.au\/subscribe\/\"><span style=\"color: #ec456c\">Melbourne<\/span><\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff9900\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900\" href=\"http:\/\/www.perthhomeshow.com.au\/subscribe\/\">Perth<\/a><\/span>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sydneyhomeshow.com.au\/subscribe\/\"><span style=\"color: #76cac5\">Sydney<\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Multi-award-winning Perth landscaper, Matthew Daly, shared no-nonsense DIY pointers at the Home Show.
