Ballarat

Ballarat, with its rich heritage, provided the perfect backdrop for a garden that pays homage to the town’s illustrious past. Our design for this garden is a harmonious blend of classic and traditional planting that perfectly complements the period of the home and the town’s historical charm.

This garden is a visual delight, featuring an array of classic and traditional plantings that transport you to a bygone era. We selected flora that mirrors the timeless elegance of Ballarat’s historical architecture. Rows of neatly trimmed hedges guide the eye and create a sense of order and structure, evoking the grace of formal gardens from yesteryear. A picturesque pergola draped in wisteria serves as the heart of the garden, providing an inviting space to sit and admire the surroundings. This pergola not only adds a touch of romance but also offers respite from the sun, making it the perfect spot for relaxation.

The result is a garden that not only complements the period of the home but also pays homage to the enduring spirit of Ballarat. It’s a space where tradition and elegance meet, where the past seamlessly merges with the present, inviting residents to step into a tranquil oasis that is truly timeless.

Timber Arbour

Our architectural timber arbour, crafted from recycled wood, adds a rustic and sustainable touch to the landscape. Each weathered plank tells a story, and the result is a piece that’s not just visually striking, but also a testament to our commitment to sustainability. This arbour provides a charming focal point, offering shade and a sense of timelessness, making it the perfect spot to sit back, relax, and enjoy the beauty of the great outdoors.

Structural Hedges

Formal hedges, offer refinement and structure in garden design. At Luma, we recognise the power of these meticulously pruned, well-structured green boundaries. Formal hedges not only offer a sense of order and balance but also create an air of grandeur within the garden. Their neatly clipped geometry adds a touch of classical charm and provides a strong visual framework for the surrounding landscape. These hedges can be used to define spaces, create paths, or offer privacy, adding both structure and grace to outdoor areas.  Discover how hedges can bring a touch of formal beauty to your outdoor space, making a statement that transcends trends.

Traditional Planting

Traditional planting, a celebration of time-honoured horticultural practices, forms the heart and soul of many of our gardens. At Luma, we love the way plants can create a sense of nostalgia and familiarity. Traditional plantings reflect a deep respect for regional flora and established gardening techniques. They exude a sense of timeless beauty and create a connection to the past. These gardens blend old-world charm with modern functionality, offering a sanctuary where the art of gardening is preserved and cherished. Our team is dedicated to creating and maintaining traditional plantings that encapsulate the essence of a bygone era, ensuring that your garden is a haven of tranquillity and enduring beauty.
