A More Sustainable Adventure

Gardening on a slope – As seen on Gardening Australia – Sloped Garden Ideas – Garden Tour

By letter2self on October 12, 2023



Join me, Chloe, as I walk you through my Australian backyard garden – let me inspire you with some ideas on how to garden on a slope. Don’t let a sloping garden hold you back – there are many many ways you can still have a beautiful and productive garden.

We moved into this property 6 years ago – at the time there wasn’t a single plant in the garden – apart from some big gum trees. But during the past 6 years we’ve slowly transformed the space into various “rooms” and spaces we use daily. The “very backyard” section was our most recent creation and account for about a quarter of our overall house block.

To tackle the 33% sloping backyard we used a very clever product called ‘Straightcurve Edging’ – it’s a rusted steel edging (corten steel edging) that can be bent into any shape. So we’ve used it to create terrace style steps up to a small but lush green lawn.

Want to see how my garden has grown since this video was made? Check out my feature on the Gardening Australian episode from Feb 2023 (that was filmed in Jan 2022!) – https://youtu.be/9_73jOMP4MQ
