Landscaping in Bouvard: what we see

Acreage landscaping here means earthworks and water: driveways, firebreaks, paddock levelling, bore retic, and house-surround gardens that blend into the bush with native planting and gravel rather than fighting it with lawn.

Three things to know about Bouvard yards

Firebreak notice: lots over 4,000 m² need a 4 m break by mid-November — we cut them.
Bore water is the norm; we install pump and filter systems for retic.
Keep lawn to the house surround and use native, low-fuel planting beyond it.
