About Us
Gardeners who actually turn up
Manningham Gardens started the way a lot of good local businesses do — with a mower, a trailer and a handful of neighbours who needed a hand keeping on top of their lawns. Word spread, and today we look after homes right across Melbourne's eastern suburbs.
We've stayed deliberately small. It means the same familiar faces come to your place each visit, we remember how you like things done, and nothing gets rushed. Whether it's a compact courtyard or a big established garden, the standard is the same.
Most of our work comes from referrals, which is exactly how we like it. Do good work, be easy to deal with, and leave every garden looking better than you found it.
