What matters on a Balgowlah property?
The streets running toward North Harbour combine harbour-influenced gardens with dense residential development, so usable work space can change from one Balgowlah block to the next.
Freestanding brick homes, renovated cottages, townhouses and strata gardens frequently place vegetation close to roofs, courtyards and common driveways.
Mature eucalypts, figs, palms and formal boundary hedges can all appear in Balgowlah gardens, but the correct treatment depends on the individual plant and its position.
On a Balgowlah property, the species name alone does not decide whether a tree should be removed or pruned. Josh looks at the individual tree, the outcome you need and the constraints of the Balgowlah site before explaining the practical options.
