Landscape Design & Installation

From concept to completion — beautifully designed, expertly planted.

At Black Bridge Nurseries, we offer a complete landscape service that takes your outdoor space from blank canvas to finished masterpiece. Whether you’re starting with a fresh site, updating an existing garden, or working from architectural plans, our team will guide you every step of the way — from initial design right through to final planting.

We combine thoughtful design with premium plant supply and skilled installation, so your landscape not only looks incredible but thrives for years to come.

What we offer

Landscape
Design

Our in-house designers work with you to create a customised landscape plan that suits your space, lifestyle, and goals. Whether you want a lush, low-maintenance retreat or a bold architectural layout, we bring your vision to life with expert guidance and creativity.

Planting Plans & Tree Selection

Using our horticultural expertise, we select trees and plants that match your design, site conditions, and climate.

As a working nursery, we understand plants from the ground up. We’ve been growing trees since 1966, bringing a deep knowledge of exactly what thrives in New Zealand’s soils, microclimates, and regional conditions. Every tree we plant is carefully chosen not just for its looks, but also its long-term success in your landscape.

Installation

Our in-house landscape team handles all soft landscaping elements — including ground prep, planting, irrigation setup, mulching, and more. We also coordinate any necessary hardscaping works through trusted subcontractors to ensure seamless project delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not at all. Whether you have a full set of plans or just an idea in mind, we can help. Our team can work from architectural drawings, or start from scratch with a site visit and concept plan.

Our service typically includes a site consultation, concept development, planting plan, and tree selection guidance. We also provide a clear quote for supply, installation, and any recommended prep or aftercare services.

We specialise in soft landscaping — trees, shrubs, groundcovers, irrigation, mulching, and soil prep — but we also coordinate with trusted contractors for any hardscaping elements like paving, walls, or garden structures, ensuring a seamless result.

As much or as little as you like. Some clients enjoy being hands-on, while others prefer a full-service approach. We’ll tailor the process to suit your level of involvement and decision-making style.

Yes! We’re happy to collaborate with your existing designer or architect, or we can provide the design work in-house. Either way, we ensure plant selection is practical, beautiful, and suitable for the site.

It depends on the size and complexity of the project. Small planting jobs might take a day or two, while full landscape transformations can span several weeks. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we begin.

Absolutely. We’re experienced in creating beautiful results at a wide range of price points. During the planning phase, we’ll work with you to prioritise elements and suggest smart substitutions to keep your project on track.

Autumn and winter are great for planting trees and establishing gardens, but we work year-round. Some species are seasonal, so starting with a consultation early helps us plan around availability and optimal planting windows.

We don’t currently offer ongoing garden maintenance, but we do provide a tailored care plan for your new trees and can recommend local garden care providers if needed.

Our landscape installation team is based in Auckland and services the wider Auckland region. For projects outside this area, we can supply trees and plants and work with your local installer or landscaper.
