About Us
Consolidated Horticultural Services was founded in 1995 by Alistair Bethke, after he had spent seven years working for the City of Melbourne’s Parks and Gardens division. With his broad experience and hands on approach, Alistair has developed a reputation for maintaining premium gardens across Melbourne’s inner suburbs, many of which have been captured in Paul Bangay’s books.
At CHS, our standard-driven service places a high value on horticultural excellence, as well as the development of positive relationships with clients as we help their gardens grow and develop over time. We understand the financial commitment clients make to their garden, and work to ensure that our maintenance service delivers the intended vision of the original design while being flexible to changing client preferences.
Our Philosophy
We are committed to providing a horticulturally focused service, and with quality assurance systems in place to ensure that all tasks are attended to, as well as flexible timetabling, we can achieve great results. Interaction with our clients is very important to us; we are committed to preserving our clients’ privacy and environment by providing a respectful service both on site and in our handling of access keys and property information.
Any aspect of the garden maintenance service or program can be discussed with our team members during visits, or one of our management staff can attend the property to review its progress and address any issues.
