South African wildlife is famous the world over.  Between breathtaking proteas and avo plants that grow taller than humans, you’ve got A-class inspiration all around you for your garden.  And not only does a South African theme show off your national pride, it’s good for the environment.  Using indigenous plants discourages environmentally harmful transportation and gives South African species a chance to flourish.  Surround your deck with these local beauties and use African inspired cushions and accessories to create the perfect retreat.  Throw in a daring cheetah pillow or mix a bit of cow hide into the decor.  Yebo!

Prim and Proper

Embrace your sophisticated side.  Give your deck and garden a proper feel with neatly trimmed bushes and clean lines.  Go ultra English with a mini maze if you have the space, or add in a bit of posh with wrought iron deck furniture and a muted palette.  Throw in a tease of colour with English roses to keep things interesting. 

Let the afternoon teas begin!
