Garden design, indigenous planting, irrigation and ongoing maintenance for Cape Town properties. We plan and build water-wise gardens with fynbos and drought-tolerant species, integrate hardscape elements, install drip irrigation and keep the result looking great with regular maintenance plans. Serving Constantia, Camps Bay, Plattekloof, Southern Suburbs, Atlantic Seaboard, Northern Suburbs and the Winelands.
Cape Town’s climate rewards smart garden design and punishes lazy planting. Green Fix designs and installs gardens around the climate — indigenous fynbos that thrives in our soil, drought-tolerant species that look good through summer water restrictions, careful hardscape integration so paths, patios and planting beds work together. From a full new-build garden to softening a renovated property to ongoing maintenance for established homes, we plan a garden you will actually want to spend time in. Planning a water-wise garden? Our water-wise fynbos garden inspiration is packed with indigenous plant recommendations.

02
We send a garden plan with planting palette, hardscape layout, irrigation notes and a phased fixed quote so you can choose to do the whole thing at once or stage it over a year.
