Situated within the suburb of Waitakere (Auckland) and surrounded by an Outstanding Natural Landscape, planting for this residential property must be reflective of the surrounding natural environment.  Plants were sourced from two nearby plant nurseries that specialise in eco-sourcing native vegetation from the Waitakere area. The species chosen for this design are as follows:
