FROM THE PRESIDENT

Georgia Harper, President of Landscaping Victoria Master Landscapers, left a corporate career behind her 15 years ago, retrained as a landscape designer, and hasn’t looked back. Her ethos is to create individual gardens for individuals – covering a vast array of styles, sizes and locations throughout Victoria and interstate. Her gardens have won awards at MIFGS, the National AILDM Awards and Landscape Victoria, and been covered in countless publications.

Welcome to the 2020 Edition of The Best! As life becomes busier and more complicated, more and more people are recognising the value of creating an oasis at home - both for increased well-being and to add value to the home.

In recent years, there has been a real push towards creating personal spaces that are calming, enriching and inclusive of family.

Our members are working with people all over the state to achieve these special places - from large acreage to tiny balconies, there really is no space that can't contribute to the resident's quality of life. You'd be amazed what these transformations can create in terms of long-term benefit to quality of life and adding to your property investment - and it all starts with a chat with an experienced Landscape professional. You may need to renovate a tired area; you may have inherited an overgrown garden containing hidden gems; you may want to create a multi-function space that can grow with your family over the years - what ever the situation, it's always a good idea to start with some great advice, and that's where our members come in.

Landscaping Victoria members are vetted for qualification, reputation, skills and insurances - so you know that if you're talking to an LV member, you're getting a professional who knows what they are doing.
