Gardening in Winmalee
In October 2013 bushfires destroyed homes across Winmalee and Yellow Rock. Since then, many residents have rebuilt and replanted with fire safety in mind. We help keep those gardens low-fuel: short grass, clean gutters, no leaf build-up against walls, and shrubs kept clear of windows and eaves.
Winmalee's warm, sheltered gardens grow quickly. Regular mowing and hedge trimming through spring and summer keeps them tidy and safe, and a winter visit is a good time to prune and plan new plantings.
