Landscape plan done!

We met Mark Ferrington from Australian Natives on-site on Saturday. Mark used to run Sydney Wildflower West nursery just up the road in Marsden Park before their lease expired and they closed down.

We walked up to the site for a quick look and noticed that the large trees were still there! Apparently they will be moved this week. Mark was interested in the Cumberland Forest at the rear of our block.



Back at the Sales Centre, we sat down and spent 2 hours going through garden ideas and plant selections. We really have no idea about native plants so Mark's advice was invaluable. He also provides garden construction services like shaping garden beds and spacing out plants - all we would have to do is dig holes, plant them and mulch!

We drew our landscape plan ourselves based on Mark's hand drawings - was fairly easy with photoshop and Microsoft Powerpoint. We'll forward them to Wisdom Homes to go into our DA (once we get developer approval of course)
