A stunning new build in Cambridge, with the outdoor spaces to match. 🌿

A new home is one thing, but it can take a bit of thinking to turn the surrounding section into a garden that feels finished and ready to enjoy.

For this repeat client, we worked from a landscape design by Ginny the Love of Landscapeto bring the outdoor spaces together, with plenty of attention to both the details and how the garden will be used.

Brick edging defines the lawn and garden beds, new lawns create open green space, and concrete stepping stones with lime-chip gravel connect the different areas. We also built six raised timber gardens for a future orchard, creating space to grow fruit trees and make the most of the property.

It’s a mix of structure, greenery and practical spaces that have a swimming pool as the focus, that will continue to develop as the garden grows. And with the groundwork now done, the owners have a great foundation to make the outdoor areas their own.

Another Cambridge project brought to life by the Groundcover team, working alongside a great landscape plan from Ginny at For the Love of Landscape.

There’s a real skill in getting the details right. ✂️🌿

Crisp edges, neatly shaped hedges and shrubs that are trimmed with care don’t happen by accident. It takes the right tools, a good eye and knowing where to cut - and just as importantly, where not to.

Our Garden Care team knows that good results aren’t about cutting everything back as hard as possible. It’s about understanding how each plant grows, keeping its shape, and leaving the garden looking tidy without compromising its health.

The difference is in the detail. And when you have professionals taking care of it, you can enjoy the results without having to do the hard work yourself.

Want the garden looking good before Christmas? 🌿

Our Garden Care calendar is filling up, and we’re already booked through to November.

If you’re after a one-off garden tidy before Christmas, we have just a few spaces left, so now’s a good time to get in touch and see what we can do.

Or, if you’d rather not have to think about booking every time the garden needs attention, ask us about regular garden care. We’ll keep you on our schedule and take care of things throughout the year, so you can enjoy your garden without having to chase us for a spot.

Whether it’s a pre-Christmas spruce-up or ongoing help to keep everything looking its best, have a chat with Mike and get your garden care sorted.

Looks great in a photo. Works a little differently in real life. 🌿

When you’re planning an outdoor dining area, it’s easy to measure the table and think, yep, that’ll fit.

But a table isn’t just a table once you start using it.

Chairs get pulled out. People sit down. Someone needs to walk past. And suddenly that generous-looking space feels surprisingly tight.

A simple test before you commit to the size: set it up as you would actually use it and see how it feels to move around it.

It’s a small thing, but getting the space around your furniture right can make a big difference to how comfortable and usable your outdoor area is.

And if you're planning a new outdoor space, think about how you’ll use it first - then build around that. Those little everyday movements will tell you a lot more about your layout than staring at a plan ever will.

🌿We built a show garden. You chose it. 💚

What a weekend at the ! We were very excited to be part of the Landscape Design Awards this year, building a show garden in collaboration with Landscape Designer, Siobhan Keating from - and what a bonus to come away with the People’s Choice Award. 🏅

This garden is a showcase of two skill sets, detailed design and skilled craftsmanship, and what can be created when the two work together.

When those two things come together seamlessly, the result is better for it.

A huge thanks to Siobhan for trusting us with her design and for being such a great collaborator throughout the whole process, and to Graeme & Simon who put in the hard yards to bring it all together. Thanks also to our team who kept the wheels turning at Groundcover HQ for the show week and to the guys who helped to take it all down again after the show!

We loved chatting with so many of you over the weekend, hearing what you liked, answering questions, talking gardens and landscaping… and catching up with plenty of familiar faces and past clients along the way.

It’s easy to forget where we started. Just grass. Everything you see in these photos - the trees, plants, bricks, timber, paths, edging, structures, pots and all the finishing details - was brought in and built on site to create the finished garden you saw at the Show. A lot had to happen in a very short space of time! Huge thanks to all the suppliers who helped make it possible.

To everyone who voted for our garden in the People’s Choice Award - thank you! There’s something very special about having the people who walked through the garden choose it as their favourite.

We’ll be sharing more about the garden, the build and the collaboration soon - there’s so much more to tell!

🌱 Spring growth doesn't wait for anyone. Everything is growing. Fast.

Hedges are putting on inches, weeds are popping up overnight and the jobs you thought you'd get to “this weekend” are starting to add up.

💚This is where good garden management makes a difference. We look after the jobs you don't have time for.

Regular garden care isn't just about mowing lawns and pulling weeds.

Our Garden Care team can take care of the things that keep your garden looking good and growing well - from pruning, hedges and roses to weeding, mulching, planting and irrigation.

🌈And importantly, we keep an eye on what your garden needs next, rather than waiting until it becomes a big job.

Get the garden sorted - keep your weekends free. Between now and Christmas, there is plenty happening in the garden.

We can help keep it under control so you aren't facing a giant garden job every time you want to have people over - or sacrificing your Saturday to get it back under control. You enjoy the garden. We'll manage the work behind it.

If you’re not sure what your garden actually needs, that’s okay too.

🌿You don’t have to know. That’s our job.

🏠 Completed Project: Already a beautiful home. Now it works even better.

This Cambridge home didn’t need a complete overhaul. It already looked great.

What it needed was a few thoughtful additions to make the outdoor spaces feel more connected, more finished - and much more useful.

🔨 We extended the existing composite deck to bring it right out to the pergola, creating a much bigger space to actually live in. New paving now gives easy access around the sides of the house, while crisp mowing strips frame the back lawn and make keeping everything tidy a whole lot easier.

🌿 The new front gardens add another layer of greenery and welcome, and a Corten steel raised garden in a sunny spot is all ready for planting.

🌈 And with the louvre pergola plumbing sorted, the whole space is set up to be enjoyed properly.

Nothing overdone. Just a series of additions that have taken a home that was already looking good and made the outdoor spaces feel complete.

That’s often the difference a good landscaping job makes — not changing everything, just making what’s already there work better.

What if the garden of the future is not defined by what is new, but what is considered?

We are working in collaboration with Siobhan from https://www.skgardensnz.com/ for her entry in the Landscape Design awards at the Waikato Home & Garden show, this garden explores longevity - through enduring materials, resilient planting and thoughtful restraint.

This garden is a showcase of two skill sets, detailed design and skill craftsmanship and what can be created when the two work together.

We are so excited to be helping Siobhan with her entry and we will be sharing the journey as the garden comes to life over the next few days.

We recently had the privilege of completing this very special memorial garden at Taitua Arboretum for Hamilton City Council, on behalf of the Mortimer family, to commemorate John and Bunny Mortimer - the founders of this very special place,

Graeme, Paul & Jan attended the official opening and met the Mortimer family - how impressive to have all 9 children, plus other family in attendance.
Hearing their stories really cemented what a special project this was for us to be involved in.

We’re incredibly proud to have played a small part in honouring the Mortimer family and the remarkable legacy they created here.

A place to sit. A place to remember. A legacy that continues to grow. 🌳
