What do garden planting services include?
A tidy, well-tended, and beautiful garden can uplift the atmosphere of your home. If your yard is a mess and you don’t know where to start, you can book a skilled and experienced gardener to get the job done. While the range of skills and services vary from Tasker to Tasker, here’s what you can expect when you book a standard garden planting service on Airtasker:
Â
Basic gardening tasks
Your Tasker can get on top of your garden’s health and appearance. From watering and feeding your plants to trimming large shrubs and trees, you can hire a gardener to keep your greenery in tiptop shape. They can also help remove weeds and trim hedges in your garden.Â
Â
Shrub and tree planting
Planting shrubs and trees can be challenging! Planting services near you can help you select prime and healthy specimens for your yard. Moreover, the gardener can plant them using proper and professional techniques. This way, you can avoid damaging your other plants, pipes, and underground wiring that may get in the way.Â
Â
Installation services
Are you looking to revamp your garden? Garden planting services near you may also install key decorative fixtures in your yard. Whether it’s a bird bath bench or a sculpture, you can have your Tasker safely install any fixture to enhance the look of your garden. Do note that if you intend to install a fountain, well, or anything that requires plumbing, your Tasker may have to work with an experienced plumber.
Â
Yard waste removal and cleanup
If you’ve just weathered through a storm or moved into a new home, your garden might need a major cleanup. The task can be pretty overwhelming, but not to a Tasker! They can help remove branches, old fencing, broken glass, corrugated iron, or any other junk.
Â
Simple landscaping
A garden planting service can help you achieve the garden of your dreams. This service can include designing and installing walkways, planting, mulching, weeding, and pruning plants for them to reach optimal health. Your Tasker can also help you select flowers and plants that will thrive in your climate and still add vibrancy to your home! What’s more, a plant repotting service near you can help transfer your plants to larger, more beautiful pots.Â

Balaclava VIC 3183, Australia

I have three large planter boxes (1000 x 420 x H450) on an apartment balcony that need filling with soil and plants. Looking for someone who can source the products and deliver to my home (one flight of stairs). Also looking for someone who knows about plants as the area does not get direct sunlight. A friend who is a horticulturalist recommended a mix of tractor seat plant, japonica fatsia and coleus argentatus plant - however open to advice. The boxes are against a wall and rail too, so keen for plants to develop some height. I am on a budget but happy to discuss price further

Help Needed: Plant Lover for Courtyard, Balcony & Indoor Plant Care – Albert Park / Port Melbourne Hi there! 👋 We live in a townhouse in the Albert Park / Port Melbourne area and are looking for someone who enjoys gardening and has a good understanding of both indoor and outdoor plants. We’re not the most confident green thumbs, and with summer coming up, we’d love some help to make sure our plants are happy and thriving. Here’s what we’re hoping you can help with: Front Courtyard – Clear out dead leaves, remove weeds, check on the health of the plants, and share any tips or recommendations. Water blast walls, general clean and tidy up. Perhaps a hedge trim too? Balcony Plants – We have a few balconies with plants that need a health check. We'd love advice on what we should or shouldn’t be doing to care for them. Indoor Plants – Same as above! A quick assessment and some guidance on how to keep them looking their best... alive. If you’re someone who loves plants and knows how to care for them, we’d really appreciate your help. Looking forward to hearing from you! I’ve maxed out all photos, but there’s 5 indoor plants too.
Antony did a fantastic job sprucing up our gardens, balconies and pot plants. Thank you so much! The areas and plants look gorgeous
