Green thumbs, dynamic gardens

INTO the Wild provides an innovative and cost-effective garden and landscape service that is as comprehensive as it is affordable.
The business is great at restoring old gardens, as well as inventing new and dynamic ways to keep up with changing needs and fashions.
They’re a passionate, personable and professional team with an impeccable reputation for attention to detail.
Into the Wild is always a great relief to clients who have experienced the ‘hack-and-slash brigade’.
All staff have an understanding of the area’s unique conditions; having spent childhoods in the dirt, and developing great respect for the history of established gardens and the rainforest.
Their ornamental plantings are renowned in Melbourne.
They have been featured at the International Garden Centre Congress and include expertise in niches like green walls, seasonal plantings, natives and revegetation projects, rare plants and exotic species, as well as transplanting, soil testing, pest and disease control.
Courtyard or acreage, they thrive on a blank canvas.
The designers love to help you express your dreamscape on a new property, or to re-create a tired planting scheme.
They know the plants to best suit the situation, and the effect they will create in their setting.
Their imaginative engineering department will create anything you can imagine and make it to last.
Kitchens and barbecues, driveways and paving; lighting and irrigation; engineered retaining walls; decking and pergolas, ponds, pools and planter beds.
As well as unique outdoor living elements like natural pools, stone water-features and rainwater overflow gardens.
The business is one of Melbourne’s premier designers and builders of stone gabions.
They cut their own cages to create indestructible works of beauty in fanciful shapes.
Into The Wild has been operating in Melbourne for the past four years and has recently moved back home to the hills after creating gardens in some of the city’s most prestigious inner suburbs.
