This Rolleston project offered a distinctive design approach, with bold shapes and carefully considered forms creating real character throughout the landscape. The unique lines of the decking, boundary screens, and raised vegetable planters bring individuality to the space, giving it a strong architectural presence. From the street, the front entrance garden offers just a glimpse of what lies beyond, building intrigue as the layered planting and carefully curated details reveal themselves on the approach to the rear garden.

A bespoke plastered block feature wall pairs beautifully with the warmth of natural kwila slat screening, combining texture and contrast in a way that feels both modern and inviting. A statement planter anchors the space, while deep black bark creates striking definition against bright white stone pathways, drawing attention to the clean lines and thoughtful material palette. As the garden settles in and the Gaura matures into full bloom, this outdoor space will only become richer in softness, movement, and seasonal beauty.

Easy to communicate with. Did the job properly, on time and passed some savings on in the final invoice. We'll be very happy to use Leading Landscapes if we need any similar work done in the future. The lawn is gorgeous

Tom

Simon and Elizabeth were amazing to work with, they were very communicative. They were very knowledgeable about the land covenants of our area and worked closely with us to adhere to them. They did and amazing job and went over and above the call of duty.

The initial job was completed on time - even though the weather was super hot, Simon came in later in evening to complete the job. They have worked with us to get our pathway right for our nursery children - which has required some additional research and time.
