Sustainable Features and Stylish Planting
FDSS Landscaping designs gardens that look good and do good. By selecting drought-tolerant natives and subtropicals suited to Sydney’s climate, we reduce water bills while delivering vibrant colour throughout the year. Permeable paving, rain-garden filtration and organic mulches capture storm-water and enrich soil biology. Discreet low-voltage LED lighting extends outdoor living after sunset, while smart controllers schedule irrigation only when plants need it. Your landscape becomes a stylish retreat that actively shrinks your environmental footprint.
