Summary
Fiona Brockhoff's name has become synonymous with environmentally sustainable garden design in Australia. Her adventurous use of native plants clipped like topiary, exotic plants climatically suited to locations and use of texture gives her gardens a very distinctive flavor. Often using indigenous plants with colors like muted grey, silver and olive green, she uses shape and form to create spaces rather than short-lived flower color. Most of her gardens survive on the rain nature sends them, and are relatively low maintenance, with the exception of vegetable gardens and chicken runs, which she encourages clients to include.
Designing with Nature will surprise and delight, with its inspiring ideas and planting styles designed to challenge the norm.
