The newly launched Adelaide Garden Guide for New Homes, developed in partnership between Green Adelaide and State Planning Commission with expertise from Clover Green Space, provides small garden designs and planting ideas to help make it easy to implement the Planning and Design Code's mandatory tree and landscaping requirements for new homes and renovations in metropolitan Adelaide.

The new guide aims to inspire people who are building new homes or extensions to add more greenery and improve the livability of Adelaide's neighbourhoods.

The Guide includes:

  • lists of the top 10 most appropriate small, medium and large tree options that can be planted in a small home garden
  • 3D visualisations and checklists to achieve home greening success
  • case studies of common infill housing types including how to meet the mandatory Planning and Design Code tree planting and landscaping policies
  • examples of different landscape garden palettes and small garden designs
