Landscaping & Garden Design in Chan Chemuyil: native plants, irrigation and garden lighting
We design and build gardens in Chan Chemuyil with native and adapted plants, real topsoil over the limestone, irrigation and lighting, then maintain them if you are away. The village is a short distance from the sea, so salt is moderate but humidity is high, and mould prevention matters more than marine-grade metal.
