PROJECT: Weekend garden in Gorenjska region
The garden was created during a weekend in Gorenjska. The cottage is set into the hillside, the terrace is levelled on a high slope. The owner wanted to create a terrace with a uniform paving, which was already around the house, to install luminaires in the existing wall, and to install ambient luminaires in the floor of the newly made terrace. Even though the garden is small, it was necessary to work with many of our subcontractors (builders, pavers, electricians). The problem was that all the sand of the old terrace had to be removed and the soil had to be relaid. There was also the problem of access for trucks, concrete trucks and an auto-hauler on a very steep and narrow road, and lifting all the machinery onto the terrace. We also had to use a mobile lift to raise the excavator onto the terrace. We planted the garden very simply, with just one ornamental bed of low pine trees and perennials, and the rest was laid to grass.

TESTIMONIALS
We contracted Pro Horto Strgar to manage the garden, and they behaved with complete professionalism from the initial idea to the final execution of the work. We particularly appreciated: the garden tour and the advice on how to improve the garden; the preparation of the garden design; our visit to the planting plan at the company’s headquarters; the execution of the work, which was very fast and good. In our experience, this was one of the few times that the work was carried out professionally and according to the agreed plan. Recommended!

What means the most to me about them is that they come, pick up the keys at the agreed place, tidy up the kennels, trim the trees, tidy up and lock up. Sometimes I tell my wife that I did it all…
