This native cottage garden compliments one of Swanbourne’s beautifully renovated old workers cottages. Recycled brick pathways and a new driveway/paved carport add warmth and charm to the simplistic new front garden layout.

The colour palette of mostly whites, yellows & oranges compliment the burnt orange bricks, while cool grey foliage echo the new grey tint of the front façade.

The large one meter D white bowl on its sleeper foundation is the hero of the space, where spreading ground-covers have softened the surrounding edges.

Silver Princesses add height and structure to the space while grafted Corymbia’s and various Grevillea varieties will provide necessary boundary screening.
