Garden Design & Softscaping

Why Do So Many DIY Gardens Fail Within the First Year?

It usually comes down to one thing: wrong plants, wrong soil, wrong conditions. Homeowners grab plants that look good at the nursery, toss in standard landscape mix, and wonder why everything struggles by summer.
​

Professional garden design avoids these expensive mistakes. We match plants to your specific conditions—sun exposure, soil type, maintenance preferences—so your garden thrives rather than survives.

Native-First Design Philosophy

Our go-to approach is working with Australian natives. They've proven they can handle Perth conditions without constant watering or maintenance. Most need little to no ongoing care—perfect for busy homeowners who want beauty without the weekend gardening burden.

For clients wanting other plant varieties, we carefully select species suited to your specific site conditions—knowing which plants handle full sun versus those requiring afternoon shade.

Low-Maintenance Solutions That Actually Work

For truly minimal maintenance, we recommend rock gardens with statement boulders and drought-tolerant succulents or cacti. Combined with quality weed mat and decorative stone, you'll have a striking garden that needs almost no attention year-round.​

Why Perth Homeowners Choose RH

We focus on quality over speed. That means attention to detail others skip—like hand-fluffing mulch after installation, proper soil compaction for lawns that stay firm, and irrigation systems designed for easy future maintenance.

 

When issues arise, we think on our feet. We don't disappear. We don't ghost. And we back our work—if something needs fixing, we're there the next day.
