  • Project: Round Gabion Planter
  • Client: Stuart Elsegood, Oakforce

Project Background

The aim of this project was to enhance the landscape around a mature olive tree while creating a functional and visually striking feature that complements the garden’s contemporary design.

Solution

A circular gabion planter was selected to provide structural support, improve definition around the tree, and introduce a natural stone element that blends seamlessly with the surrounding outdoor space.

“This installation shows how gabions can transform a tree into a stunning garden focal point. The natural stone finish complements the olive tree beautifully while creating a durable, low-maintenance feature.”

Erno, Sales Support Specialist at Wire Fence

Installation Process

Gabion baskets were assembled and arranged in a circular formation around the tree, then filled with decorative river stones. The central planting area was prepared and finished with drought-tolerant plants to create a low-maintenance display.
