Bringing Landscapes to Life with Native Planting and Care
At Unique Environments Ltd, we specialise in soft landscaping — the living, growing elements that bring your outdoor spaces to life. From small residential projects to large-scale ecological restoration, our focus is on creating natural, resilient environments that thrive for years to come.
Soft landscaping is about the plants, soil, and living features that give a landscape its character and texture. Our skilled team combines practical landscape experience with a passion for native ecology, ensuring every project enhances the land’s natural beauty and long-term sustainability.
Whether you’re establishing a new planting project or refreshing an existing space, we work closely with you to design and implement solutions that are both visually appealing and environmentally responsible.
Our Soft Landscaping Services Include:
We offer a comprehensive range of soft landscaping services tailored to each site and client:
Site preparation – removing unwanted vegetation, improving soil structure, and controlling weeds before planting begins.
Plant supply and installation – we source quality native plants suited to your conditions, including eco-sourced natives from our own Whangarei nursery.
Mulching and soil conditioning – to retain moisture, reduce weeds, and enrich soil nutrients for healthy growth.
Irrigation setup – installing simple or automated systems to support young plant establishment.
Staking and protection – ensuring plants are supported and protected against weather, pests, or browsing animals.
Infill and staged planting – we can complete your project in stages, allowing flexibility for seasonal timing or budget considerations while ensuring consistent results.
