The garden aims to combine eco-friendly elements with aesthetic appeal, and mindful living. Organic abundance is represented by vibrant, lush planting, this garden invites attendees to experience the beauty of a balanced and environmentally conscious outdoor space. Exploring the integration of simple water conservation, and efforts to enhance natural ecosystems, the Eco Oasis Garden is designed to be maintained with organic gardening principles that empower individuals to cultivate their own “good life.” Features include: • Water troughs to store rain water and direct excess to the ‘rain garden’ via the rill. • Large format pavers at varying heights to suit the rill, to add interest and to allow permeable ground around rather than large areas of impermeable material. • Pergola to frame the garden. • Hedge to encourage wildlife. • Pollinator friendly planting. • Bug & fungus friendly environments created using log piles.
