Toorak Landscaping & Garden Maintenance
Caring for Toorak's finest gardens since 1995
Toorak is home to some of Melbourne's most significant private gardens, and they demand a level of care to match. For over 30 years, Consolidated Horticultural Services has maintained and transformed high-end gardens across the suburb, combining horticultural precision with a genuine respect for established, well-designed landscapes. From formal hedging and mature specimen trees to complete seasonal care, we help Toorak gardens look their considered best throughout the year.
Discretion, consistency, and craftsmanship matter as much as the work itself on properties like these. Offering full-service gardening in Toorak, we take on everything from ongoing seasonal programs to complete garden redesigns, always with a considered, all-encompassing approach.
Our reputation in this space is not accidental. Founder Alistair Bethke established CHS in 1995 after seven years with the City of Melbourne's Parks and Gardens division, and that disciplined horticultural background has made CHS a trusted name for premium gardens across the city. Several of the gardens we maintain have been featured in renowned landscape designer Paul Bangay's published books, whose formal, structured style is well represented across Toorak.
Whether you are maintaining an established estate garden or planning a significant redesign, you will be working with one of Melbourne's most experienced and trusted horticultural teams. Get in touch to arrange a quote.

Toorak Landscaping & Gardening FAQs
Common questions about our garden maintenance and landscaping services for Toorak's homes and estate gardens.
Do you specialise in high-end and estate gardens in Toorak?
Yes. Much of our Toorak work involves significant private gardens with formal hedging, mature specimen trees, and established plantings that require an experienced, careful hand. With over 30 years of work on premium Melbourne gardens, this is exactly the kind of property we are suited to.
Do you offer ongoing garden maintenance programs in Toorak?
We do. Most of our Toorak clients prefer a regular seasonal program to keep their garden consistently presented, covering plant care, pruning, fertilising, lawn care, and general upkeep. We also take on one-off and project-based work.
Can you work with an existing garden designer or landscape architect?
Yes. On higher-end properties we frequently maintain and implement gardens designed by others, and our team is comfortable working to an established design brief. Our own horticultural background means we understand how a garden is meant to mature and hold its form over time.
Are your team discreet and reliable on private properties?
Absolutely. On properties like these, dependable scheduling and a respectful, low-disruption presence matter. Our long-standing client relationships across Toorak and Melbourne's inner suburbs are built on exactly that consistency.
How much does landscaping in Toorak cost?
It depends on the size of the garden and the scope of work, as ongoing maintenance is very different from a full redesign. The best way to get an accurate figure is to request a quote, and we will assess the site before providing a written estimate.
