Testimonials
knowledgable, considerate design
“Sue took time to take all the factors into consideration as to how we wanted our garden to function for our family. She was bold in her design in terms of what we had to remove and her knowledge of how we had to go about putting a little more time and money into enriching the soil was very good advice. Sue has virtually changed our entire garden from being a very high maintenance garden to an attractive, low maintenance and yet very rewarding garden for our family.”
— Janette Mckenzie
highly recommended, outstanding result
“We highly recommend Sue Wellburn and Green Spirit Landscapes - she has gone above and beyond for us to deliver an outstanding result that we are absolutely delighted with. Our garden renovation was a complex project that she managed from beginning to end, including comprehensive quotations for the building works, a flexible approach to selection of features and plants, and overall the utmost desire to achieve a result we would be happy with. Sue is patient, professional and transparent with all of her dealings and ensures her team delivers for her clients, monitoring every aspect along the way. We love the new spaces so much! Thank you for everything and we have no hesitation in recommending Green Spirit Landscapes! “

enthusiastic and inspirational
“Sue, we really can’t thank you enough… building a home is exciting yet daunting but having people like yourself involved in the project made the whole experience a pleasure! Besides so much enthusiasm and inspiration, you had so much amazing advice and not just from a landscaping perspective. Thanks again.”
— Alex Nurse
absolute professionalism
“Sue is an absolute professional, super friendly and full of great ideas. Sue prepared a scale design brochure for us illustrating a number of different options for our garden. We discussed these amongst ourselves and with Sue’s advice we came to a final decision. Sue then arranged delivery and placement. We took the opportunity to do some of the labour ourselves for some therapy and saved ourselves a few dollars! The end result looks great. We would recommend Sue to our friends and will use her services again if the opportunity arises.”

a pleasure to work with
“We had the pleasure of working with Sue in 2017 as she transformed our under-utilised and unloved front yard into a space we now enjoy spending time in. From initial concept to final planting, Sue was easy to work with and full of creative ideas. She worked with our existing planting and was able to transform our sketchy ideas into a professional design that encapsulated our special requirements and how we would use the space. We are very happy with the outcome and have received many favourable comments from family, friends and neighbours. Thank you, Sue.”

magical results!
“We found Sue very easy to communicate with and thoroughly enjoyable to work with. She listened carefully to our brief, made useful and insightful suggestions, helped us avoid pitfalls and came up with a gorgeous garden design that suits the needs of our family, as well as our budget and taste. She prepared a thorough and informative landscaping plan based on our preliminary discussions, and tweaked the plan further throughout the design and planting process. Sue is involved in every stage of the design and implementation process. She chooses the plants, performs a lot of the manual labour and follows up with care advice. She even co-ordinates other trades that are required for hard landscaping such as brick layers and pavers. The overall result is magical and we couldn’t be happier. We can highly recommend Sue and would definitely engage her services again in the future."

invaluable expertise
“Sue has been amazing to work with and we're so happy with the garden that she designed and created for us. Right from the start she listened to our ideas and preferences and got a good feel for the look and style we were after. It was invaluable having her expertise and eye for design and materials. She helped us through the inevitable alterations as the job progressed, always offering great options as she worked with us and the builders throughout the project to bring it all to life. I would highly recommend her services and can't wait to work with her again on our next project!”
