We would like some advice on how to plant the area near the front door of our new house. We've already laid down weedmat and added rocks on either side of our new, very steep steps. We would like a mostly native garden as we're surrounded by native bush. We also want to light the planted area, maybe from below as there's a power cable already installed. BRENDA KEARNS & JOHN WALKER, PICTON Xanthe'S solution: A steep garden like this could do with a good dense mat of plants and large feature rocks to help retain the slope. Plant to scale and take care it doesn't become too gloomy.
