Landscaping Services in Hobart
Outstanding Gardens Hobart provides landscaping for any sized gardens across Sandy Bay, Kingston and greater Hobart. Our specialties include: steel garden edging, native plant garden refreshes, and mulching (a lot of it — it's one of the most common jobs we do). Our sweet spot is small and medium jobs — a tired bed, an unruly lawn edge, a garden that needs bringing back to life — but if you've got a bigger project in mind, get in touch and we'll talk it through.
Specialists in small and medium jobs
Outstanding Gardens Hobart is built around the jobs that big landscaping crews often don't want: a single garden bed, a tired corner that's been ignored for years, a lawn edge that's stopped holding its line, or a modest front or back yard that needs a proper refresh rather than a rebuild. No job's too small. That's where we've built our reputation — but it doesn't rule out larger landscaping projects. If you've got something bigger in mind, get in touch and we'll let you know how we can help.
Garden Edging — Steel Edging Specialists
A clean, well-defined edge does more for how "finished" a garden looks than almost anything else — and steel holds that line better, and for longer, than timber or plastic edging ever does.
Doesn't warp, rot or crack the way timber edging does after a few Hobart winters.
Holds a true curve as well as a straight line — useful on the kind of sloping, terraced blocks common right across Hobart's hillside suburbs.
Keeps mulch, gravel and garden beds where you put them, instead of slowly spreading back into the lawn.
Genuinely low-maintenance once it's in — no re-staking, no replacing rotted sections every few years, which matters if you don't have time to fuss over the garden edge every season.
We install steel edging as a standalone job — a single bed, a full front yard, a fence-line strip — or as part of a broader garden refresh.
Garden Refresh — Native Plant Specialists
For a tired garden, our first recommendation is usually native planting. Natives are suited to Tasmanian conditions, have lower water and fertilisers needs once established and support local birds and pollinators.
Natives provide for lower ongoing maintenance than a bed full of exotics that need constant deadheading, feeding and replacing.
A native refresh can be as small as replanting one tired bed, or as broad as reworking the planting across a whole front or back garden — paired with steel edging to define the new lines, and finished with a proper layer of mulch to lock it all in.
Mulching — One of Our Most Requested Jobs
Mulching doesn't get talked about the way lawn mowing or hedge trimming does, but it's genuinely one of the most common jobs we do — and one of the best-value things you can have done to a garden.
Suppresses weeds and cuts down dramatically on how often a bed needs weeding by hand.
Holds moisture in the soil, which matters through a dry Hobart summer and reduces how often a garden needs watering.
Protects soil on sloping beds from washing out in heavy rain — a real issue on the terraced, hillside blocks common across Hobart.
Gives an instant, tidy finish to any bed, new planting or refreshed garden edge, often making more visible difference for the money than almost any other single job.
Whether it's a top-up on an established bed or the finishing layer on a full native refresh, mulching is a job we do at volume, all year round — and it's an easy one to bundle into a regular maintenance plan so beds never get the chance to look tired again.
