Building in a housing subdivision<br />
invariably means the developer will require<br />
you to submit a landscaping plan along<br />
with your house design, to be approved<br />
before building commences.<br />
Just as important as considering<br />
the features for your home will be<br />
your outdoor setting. Indoor/outdoor<br />
requirements will influence your choice<br />
of house design and how it will be sited<br />
on the section for a sunny yard and best<br />
protection from prevailing winds like the<br />
easterly. Having a second courtyard area<br />
offering shelter from the north-west wind<br />
is also an advantage in Selwyn.<br />
A well thought out landscape plan will<br />
also incorporate off-street parking space<br />
for vehicles while ensuring your home<br />
is attractive from the street. You might<br />
want to factor in parking for a caravan,<br />
motorhome or extra vehicles as well as a<br />
turning circle for safe turning and exiting<br />
your property (a legal requirement for<br />
back sections).<br />
<strong>The</strong> developer will only want to see a<br />
landscape outline for the part of your<br />
property which will be on view from the<br />
street.<br />
When choosing the design for your<br />
home, address where you want hard<br />
surfaces (driveway, paths and patios),<br />
lawn, play areas and garden beds so it is<br />
suitably positioned on the section. Even if<br />
not all hard surface areas are completed at<br />
the end of the build, knowing where they<br />
will be located will be helpful.<br />
If your build is nearing completion,<br />
autumn is a good time to sow grass as the<br />
cooler morning and evening dew assists<br />
growth. As winter descends on us, ready<br />
throughout lawn is a better Christchurch<br />
option at least at the front<br />
of the section, which the developer will<br />
require to be completed before moving in.<br />
Your backyard could be left until spring<br />

Landscaping enhances<br />
new & existing homes<br />
Landscaping presents a good first<br />
impression, attracting buyers.<br />
(another good time for seeding a lawn) if<br />
you are happy to put up with the mud over<br />
winter.<br />
When selling an existing home, putting<br />
effort into landscaping your yard could add<br />
value by presenting a good first impression<br />
and attracting buyers.<br />
You need not rip out overgrown<br />
established plants. Selective culling and<br />
pruning can make a huge difference<br />
to the look of a garden. Avoid hacking<br />
everything down low. Instead take out<br />
sprawling branches and thin shoots,<br />
leaving a solid trunk; planting flowers like<br />
lobelia, primula, pansies and polyanthus<br />
underneath for impact. Add a layer of<br />
mulch and spray the lawn for weeds then<br />
follow up with lawn fertiliser to give a lush<br />
green look.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first thing people see is your home’s<br />
exterior – the cladding, colours and<br />
landscaping. Putting effort into these<br />
features has the potential to add value to<br />
new and existing properties. A garden<br />
need not be masses of work. Planning and<br />
choosing the right plants for the location<br />
and your lifestyle can create a relatively<br />
low maintenance outdoor setting while<br />
enhancing your home.<br />
