Gardening in Woodford
Woodford is where the climate starts to change. Frosts are more frequent, and cool-season plants begin to do better than in the lower Mountains. Lawns can be a mix of warm- and cool-season grasses, so we adjust mowing height through the year.
Many Woodford properties back straight onto bushland. Keeping leaf litter, dead undergrowth and gutters clear is a big part of looking after a garden here, and we remove weeds like broom and privet before they spread into the bush.
