Enhance your property’s value with expert soft landscaping and functional garden design across Christchurch.

At Lush Gardens, we believe the best landscapes are living ones. While we don’t build decks or pour large concrete pads, we specialise in the “art of the garden.” Our landscaping services focus on creating lush, structured outdoor spaces using high-quality planting, elegant pathways, and pristine new lawns.

Whether you are looking to refresh a historic estate in Fendalton, modernise a coastal section in Sumner, or maintain the manicured look of a Merivale property, our team delivers high-end results tailored to your lifestyle.

Our Garden-Oriented
Landscaping services

1. Custom Planting Plans and Soft Landscaping

The right plant in the right place can transform your home’s “street appeal.” We design bespoke planting plans that account for the unique micro-climates of the Cashmere hills and the sandy soils of the coast.

  • Specialties: Native NZ garden designs, formal English-style borders, and low-maintenance modern shrubbery.
 

2. New Lawn Installation (Instant & Seeded)

A lush, green lawn is the centerpiece of any premium landscape. We provide full site preparation and installation of both instant roll-out turf and high-grade seeded lawns, perfect for family-friendly sections in Burnside or Ilam, and across Christchurch. Delivering lawns suitable to Christchurch’s unique climate. We also offer Lawn maintenance services such as Aeration, Scarifying, fertilising and weed and insect treatments.

 

3. Garden Edging & Functional Pathways

Define your garden’s structure with clean, professional edging. We use timber, stone, and metal edging to create sharp lines that separate lawns from garden beds. Our garden pathways—using decorative stone, gravel, or pavers—provide beautiful, functional access through your property without the need for heavy concrete.

4. Premium Mulching & Soil Conditioning

Protect your investment and reduce maintenance. We provide bulk mulching services using premium barks and composts that suppress weeds and retain moisture during Christchurch’s dry summers. This is essential for the large, established gardens common from Mt Pleasant to Kennedys Bush and across the Christchurch Port Hills.
