Bringing ideas to life for gardens and outdoor spaces
A well-designed and planned garden is something that many people are looking for, and the Perth Garden Show delivers a selection of gardens that inspire. Gardens that are designed to fit a certain space or a certain climate, gardens with plants that work well together, gardens that suit small blocks or larger areas – and most importantly, gardens with a waterwise focus.
The new look Water Corporation Garden Design Zone is a central resource and inspiration space for landscape designers, contractors, and installers. It aims to connect the design community with suppliers, products, and plants—encouraging collaboration and showcasing innovation in garden and landscape design.
The Water Corporation Garden Design Zone is divided into five main areas, and is presented by the Landscape Design Institute and the Landscape Industries Association WA.

Pocket Gardens designed in a 2.4m x 2.4m space. Built by students or landscape industry professionals who would like to submit their design and build it as part of the competition. There will be seven Pocket Gardens at this year’s Perth Garden Show which will be judged and winners awarded.
Achievable Garden Displays
Get inspired with the Achievable Garden Display at the Perth Garden Show! There will be several 5 metre x 5 metre display gardens built within the Water Corporation Garden Design Zone, which will include:
- 2 x Waterwise Gardens designed and built by Tim Davies Landscaping
- Grasstrees Australia’s waterwise bush garden
- A Rooftop Garden designed and built by Urban Green Solutions
- Plus more to be announced.
Achievable Gardens are a simplistic approach to garden design and serve to show to audiences that they too can create these gardens at their own homes with minimal effort.
Landscape Design Presentation Area
A small stage area will be set up within the Water Corporation Garden Design Zone and will be utilised by landscapers or garden designers to present their work via photos and videos. The presentations will surround garden “case studies” and information on how they created the gardens. The stage area will also be used for the announcement of LIAWA awards.
Special Guest Speaker Charlie Albone from Better Homes and Gardens will be at the Show on Saturday 18th April and will present on stage.
