Garden Maintenance

Garden Maintenance Canberra

Your garden, looked after properly.

There’s a real difference between a gardener who knows what looks good and one who understands why plants do what they do. Jackie and Bret bring genuine horticultural knowledge to every garden they maintain — which means your plants aren’t just tidy, they’re thriving.

With over 15 years working in Canberra’s gardens, they understand this city’s climate intimately. The late frosts, the dry summers, the alkaline soils — and how to work with all of it to keep your garden looking its best year-round.


What’s Included

Terra Solarus offers both casual and ongoing garden maintenance across Canberra, including:

General Garden Maintenance

Regular care to keep your garden healthy, tidy and seasonally appropriate.

Pruning

From roses to fruit trees to hedges — pruned correctly, at the right time of year, for the best results.

Mulching

Applied properly to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and improve soil health over time.

Fertilising

The right nutrients, at the right time, for your specific plants and soil conditions.

Insecticide & Fungicide Applications

Safe, considered use of treatments where needed — always with your garden’s long-term health in mind.

Fruit Tree Care

Pruning and spraying programs to keep your fruit trees productive and healthy season after season.


A Team You Can Trust

Jackie and Bret are fully insured and hold all relevant accreditations, including a Working with Vulnerable People (WWVP) card. Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS) are available on request.

For clients who’d like to go a step further, Jackie can also provide a Horticultural Maintenance Plan — a detailed, site-specific document that outlines the ongoing care your garden needs throughout the year. It’s particularly useful for larger properties, body corporates, and strata managers who need a clear record of what’s required and when.


Also Interested in Design or Advice?

Maintenance is just one part of what Terra Solarus offers. Jackie also provides garden advice and consulting, landscape garden design, historic garden documentation and elm tree treatments.
