What clients say
Word of mouth travels fast around the Brunswick Valley.
"Excellent work ethic on time worked hard and minimum breaks! My garden looks lovely☺️🏠🌴"
"Lutz was lovely and his service was exceptional. We had a garden that was overgrown and in need of cutting back and tidying up. Lutz was meticulous and has a great work ethic."
"I highly recommend The German Gardener. Lutz was professional, on time & very reasonably priced. We had hedging, branch removal and some bamboo & general maintenance that needed attention and Lutz did a great job, including a trip to remove all the cuttings."
"Lutz was fantastic to deal with, his communication and work ethic was outstanding, he delivered what we wanted and expected, he has a very professional approach and is careful and skilled in his work. I can't recommend Lutz highly enough for any work that is required in the garden."
"The weeds around our house were getting out of control. The German Gardener took care of it quickly and professionally, and provided great advice for managing them in the future - highly recommended!"
"As I was busy otherwise, I needed temporary help to mow my medium-size acreage block. The German Gardener took care of it completely fuss-free. Will certainly engage him again!"

What we look after
From a weekly mow to a full seasonal tidy-up, every garden gets the same careful, thorough treatment.
Weed management
Weeds pulled, sprayed or smothered before they take over your beds, paths and lawn. Ongoing control that stops them coming straight back.
- Garden bed weeding
- Paths and driveways
- Ongoing weed control
Whipper-snipping and brush-cutting
Clean edges along fences, paths and garden beds, plus heavier brush-cutting where the mower can't go. Steep banks, long grass and overgrown corners sorted.
- Edges and fence lines
- Steep banks
- Overgrown areas
Trimming and pruning
Hedges shaped, shrubs tidied and small trees pruned at the right time of year, so everything grows back healthier and looks sharp between visits.
- Hedge trimming
- Shrub shaping
- Small tree pruning
Mulching
Fresh mulch spread through your beds to hold moisture, keep weeds down and give the whole garden that finished look. Supply arranged, or we use yours.
- Garden bed mulching
- Mulch supply arranged

Garden waste disposal
All clippings, prunings and green waste loaded up and taken away when the job's done. Your place is left tidy, not piled with bags on the kerb.
