Thai Garden Design were contacted by an Expat couple who were building a new home in Koh Samui, and were interested to design and execute their tropical dream garden in Samui.
After several submissions, a design was approved and costed. It included many key features:
The Key Features
As well as a well designed planting scheme, filled with height, foliage and color, the couple were interested to include an attractive waterfall and pond, with bridge feature.
A fully automatic sprinkler system (Hunter) was also part of the new garden, in the interests of ease of maintenance and the overall health of all the new plants, grass and trees.
A sunbathe area was also an important aspect for the new owners, who wished to have a dedicated relaxation area where they could enjoy full sunshine, whilst within a wonderful tropical setting.
The garden (over 800 sqm) is a lovely tapestry of stone gardens, fine gravel, sun loving grass, and random cut stone pavers. A mix of tropical plants and shrubs make up dozens of sprawling beds, decorating around the pool, main house and gym building.
In the far corner of the plot, the Thai Garden Design team built a good sized waterfall with real, natural rock, complete with a decorative hardwood bridge.
Both automatic sprinkler and pond are fitted with timers, and switches installed within the inside of the home.
As per the design, two waterpot features were also included, at the entrance and sun bathe areas, break up the beds and provide calming water sounds at key points in the garden.
The final garden is an amazing mix of vibrant colors and classic tropical garden design. There is no dull area in any part of the garden, and is a perfect translation of the agreed plan that the customers fell in love with.
