The “dream gardeners” of Mallorca - gardening for the perfect outdoor area
Professional garden and landscape architecture around your Mallorca property
The design and planting of outdoor areas on the island is a matter for professional landscape architects. This pays off for several reasons.
„The value of a luxury property in Mallorca depends above all on how its garden looks“, a well-known German island estate agent is said to have once said. He would not be wrong even today. For Central and Northern Europeans in particular, the design and possible uses of the outdoor areas play a decisive role when choosing their second or vacation home on Mallorca. The desire for a Mediterranean lifestyle with palm trees, a pool and a chill-out area is ultimately fulfilled outside the four walls. Under the open sky.„Both in the case of new construction projects and when purchasing existing properties, many foreigners underestimate the necessary knowledge and requirements for designing their gardens and outdoor areas, says Johannes Dütsch, who has been working as a landscape architect on the island for many years. In 2014, the German founded his own company under the company label „My Landscaping Group“, which has since specialized in the conception, planning and implementation of high-quality garden and landscaping projects island-wide. A glance at his client list, which includes celebrities such as British film star Josep Fiennes, German acting couple Anna Loos and Jan Joseph Liefers, former national football star Mario Gomez and the billion-dollar Knauf family, shows that he has been very successful in this respect. But beware! Johannes Dütsch and his experienced team of garden design professionals are not the only ones working for high society on Mallorca.
„We focus on sophisticated landscaping projects in the private property sector. This is precisely where professional planning is required,“ explains Dütsch. The reason: designing outdoor areas covering thousands of square meters is usually an insurmountable challenge even for ambitious hobby gardeners.
For this reason, the first step is to clarify what the customer expects from their future garden or outdoor area. „The climatic conditions here differ significantly from those in Northern and Central Europe. The flora suitable for Mediterranean private gardens is correspondingly different," explains Dütsch. Other factors such as sun orientation, nutrient soil conditions and irrigation requirements also play a role when designing gardens and outdoor areas on Mallorca. The more sustainable the garden concept is, the greater the cost savings in the end," says Dütsch. And this ratio can only be achieved with the help of professional planning and advice. Not to forget: „Decisive for an all-round sleek garden design concept on Mallorca is the answer to the question of how much time and manpower its owners want to devote to the necessary daily care and maintenance“.
A real dream garden on Mallorca naturally also needs to be staged well. „Our service portfolio therefore also includes the planning and design of suitable lighting for all outdoor, pool and terrace areas“, says Dütsch. After all, you also want to enjoy the Mediterranean outdoor lifestyle in all its colors at night.
