Expert Garden Care in Christchurch

Hedges, beds, pruning and seasonal care — kept to the same standard we hold on our construction sites, across Christchurch, Selwyn and Waimakariri.

Gardens kept, not just tidied.

There's a difference between a tidy-up and garden care. A tidy-up makes things look better for a fortnight. Care means the right pruning at the right time of year, beds fed and weeded before problems take hold, and a garden that gets better each season instead of just recovering from the last one.

The same discipline that finishes our landscape builds runs our garden care. One company, one standard.

A kept, established garden

What we care for

  • Hedges & pruning

    Shaped, healthy and cut at the right time for the species.

  • Garden beds & weeding

    Beds kept clean, mulched and ahead of the weeds — not chasing them.

  • Seasonal planting & colour

    Planting, replacements and seasonal colour where the garden calls for it.

  • Feeding & plant health

    Soil and plant health managed through the year, not patched when something fails.

  • Tidy-ups & green waste

    Seasonal cut-backs and clean-ups, green waste removed.

  • New-garden establishment

    Care through the establishment window for newly built landscapes.

    Care after construction

On a plan, or when you need us

Garden care works as an add-on to any Horizon lawn plan, as a stand-alone garden maintenance schedule, or as one-off tidy-ups where our schedule allows. Tell us what you're dealing with and we'll scope it honestly.
