In the heart of Whanganui, a dedicated gardener is quietly transforming the region’s outdoor spaces one garden at a time. Peter, the owner and principal gardener of Whanganui Garden Services Ltd brings over 15 years of professional experience to every project, combining horticultural expertise with a genuine passion for creating beautiful, functional outdoor spaces.
Having established his first gardening and landscape service in Auckland in 2007, Peter eventually returned to his hometown of Whanganui where he founded Whanganui Garden Services Ltd. His journey back to his roots has allowed him to contribute meaningfully to the community he calls home while helping residents rediscover the joy of well-maintained gardens.
“What makes our service different is the personal connection we establish with each client,” Peter explains. “We don’t just work on gardens; we work with the people who enjoy them.”
Whanganui Garden Services offers an impressive range of options to suit various needs and budgets. From simple tidy-ups to complete garden makeovers, Peter’s approach is always tailored to the specific requirements of each property and client.
The comprehensive list of services includes:
This extensive range of services reflects Peter’s holistic understanding of what makes gardens thrive in the unique Whanganui climate and conditions.
What distinguishes Whanganui Garden Services in a competitive market is Peter’s impressive professional background. As a member of the Royal New Zealand Institute of Horticulture, he brings scientific knowledge and industry best practices to every project.
His commitment to community safety is evident in his police security clearance, which has made him an approved gardener for Age Concern Whanganui—a position of trust that speaks volumes about his character and reliability.
Furthermore, Peter’s role as a trustee for the Friends of Gordon Park scenic reserve near Whanganui East demonstrates his dedication to environmental conservation and community green spaces beyond his professional work.
Recognising the diverse needs of the community, Whanganui Garden Services has developed specialisations that cater to specific market segments. These include:
These specialised services have proven invaluable for property owners and managers looking to enhance value, appeal, and compliance.
Beyond his day-to-day business operations, Peter demonstrates a remarkable commitment to the Whanganui community through strategic sponsorships and support. Whanganui Garden Services proudly supports the Sarjeant Gallery, the Whanganui Regional Heritage Trust, Trees That Count, the Garden to Table Trust, and Predator Free NZ 2050.
These partnerships reflect Peter’s understanding that beautiful gardens are part of a broader ecosystem and cultural landscape that deserves protection and celebration.
What clients consistently highlight in their testimonials is Peter’s friendly, reliable, and efficient approach. He takes the time to understand each client’s vision and budget constraints before recommending solutions that align with their goals.
“Working with clients to achieve reasonably priced results is what drives me,” Peter says. “Whether it’s a simple clean-up, light landscaping, or a complete garden makeover with new plants, my focus is always on delivering value and creating spaces that bring joy.”
His emphasis on reasonable costs makes professional garden services accessible to a broader range of Whanganui residents, democratising beautiful outdoor spaces rather than treating them as a luxury.
As Whanganui continues to develop as a UNESCO City of Design, the role of thoughtfully designed and maintained gardens becomes increasingly significant. Peter’s expertise in sustainable garden design positions Whanganui Garden Services at the forefront of environmentally responsible landscaping in the region.
By promoting no-dig vegetable gardens, home composting, and native plantings, Peter is helping to shape a more sustainable future for Whanganui’s gardens—one that honours the region’s natural heritage while meeting contemporary needs for beautiful, functional outdoor spaces.
For Whanganui residents looking to transform their gardens with a personal touch, Peter can be reached directly at 021 032 8246. His friendly service, quick response, and reliable work ethic have made Whanganui Garden Services a trusted name throughout the region.
