Darren’s shaded garden
- A moist, shaded area where very little was growing. I created a layered planting plan using suitable plants for shade, texture and long-term growth.
“We had a difficult area in our garden that was damp, heavily shaded and constantly overrun by weeds. Rosana assessed the site and developed a planting design that has added texture, colour and interest while giving us confidence that the plants will thrive in the challenging conditions.
I would happily recommend Rosana to anyone looking for thoughtful garden design and plant selection.”

A garden to explore, harvest and enjoy
- A full-sun garden with existing trees and walls. I introduced natives, edibles and sensory plants to make the garden more productive, interactive and wildlife-friendly.
“Rosana transformed our garden into a beautiful and productive space that combines ornamental, native plants and edibles. Working around existing trees and challenging site conditions, she created a layered design that attracts birds and pollinators while providing herbs and edible plants for us to enjoy. We are thrilled with the result and would happily recommend Rosana’s garden design services.”
