Wavell Heights Project // Embracing Mediterranean Charm

Welcome to a garden paradise.

Welcome to a garden paradise crafted with love and expertise by the brilliant landscape architect, Elizabeth Weyer.

Nestled in the heart of Brisbane, this breathtaking landscape embodies the allure of the Mediterranean, transporting visitors to a realm of tranquil beauty and vibrant colours.

Collaborating with the skilled hands of the Brookes Blooms Landscape Construction Team, Elizabeth has masterfully brought her vision to life, creating an outdoor haven that seamlessly blends formal structure with a touch of whimsy, featuring captivating olive trees, bountiful lemons and lavender, and a vast lawn area for little ones to play freely.

Formal structure: A symphony of symmetry and elegance

As you step into Elizabeth Weyer's creation, the first thing that captures your attention is the immaculate formal structure of the garden. Inspired by classic Mediterranean design principles, the garden showcases symmetrical layouts and clean lines, evoking a sense of refined elegance. The geometrically shaped flower beds and paved walkways lead you on a journey through the enchanting landscape, inviting you to explore its hidden treasures.

Beautiful olive trees: Guardians of time and wisdom

Symbolic of endurance and wisdom, the olive trees stand tall as timeless guardians of this mesmerising garden. Their silvery-green leaves gently sway with the breeze, casting dancing shadows upon the earth below. Each tree tells a story of its own, having been meticulously chosen and placed by Elizabeth herself. Whether it's the welcoming shade they provide or the soothing aura they exude, the olive trees are an integral part of the Mediterranean experience.

Lemons and lavender: A symphony of fragrances

As you wander deeper into the garden, the air fills with delightful scents of zesty lemons and aromatic lavender. Elizabeth's expert curation of these Mediterranean staples adds both visual and olfactory appeal to the landscape. The lemon trees stand adorned with vibrant yellow fruits, not only adding a splash of colour but also offering a taste of fresh citrus goodness. Complementing this, the lavender bushes sway gracefully in the breeze, attracting bees and butterflies with their sweet fragrance. Together, they create a harmonious symphony of scents that elevates the overall garden experience.

A playground of joy: The spacious lawn area

In this Mediterranean haven, children are not forgotten. Embracing the importance of play and family, Elizabeth has thoughtfully designed a large lawn area where kids can frolic and explore freely. Bordered by blooming flowers and embraced by the shade of olive trees, this safe and inviting space becomes a canvas for countless adventures. From playing tag to flying kites, the vast lawn area encourages endless possibilities for children to let their imaginations run wild.

A timeless oasis

Elizabeth Weyer's Mediterranean-inspired garden, lovingly brought to life by the Brookes Blooms Landscape Construction Team, stands as a testament to the timeless appeal of formal structures blended with natural beauty. The enchanting olive trees, the tangy aroma of lemons, and the soothing scent of lavender transport visitors to a world far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city, offering a space of serenity and rejuvenation. And amidst it all, the vast lawn area provides a playground for the little ones, nurturing a sense of joy and wonder.
