We really hope it all comes together how we have envisioned it... as you would know, it's hard to imagine everything on a large scale when working with such small samples. Oh yes that’s the hardest part. Your samples look great together so I’m sure it will look stunning on a large scale. And your choices sound so opulent, real wow factor. We really hope so too. We just can't wait to get to site now. We were booked in for a site start this month, but a few delays out of our control have pushed our site start back until March. If everything goes smoothly, we hope to be in before Christmas.

I also heard from PD and they have told us that to get developer approval, we are required to submit a landscaping plan for the front of the property before a building permit will be issued. Has anyone been required to submit a landscaping plan? Our developer requires us to have at least 5 plants, 1 pot 75L or greater and 1 tree. We also aren't allowed plain concrete driveways, so we have to list the material of the driveway on the landscaping plan. We are going exposed aggregate for the driveway, so that's no issue. PD said we can use our current site plan and edit it to add the landscaping we are doing. Can the landscaping be hand drawn and coloured in to show grass/plants etc? If not, does anyone know of a free landscaping program where I could scan our current site plan and make changes?

Many people in our estate did. Just make sure everything is labeled and is in line with the guidelines your developer requires. We had to even include our letterbox. As far as I am aware no one in my estate has been forced to stick to the plan. And many changed their designs by the time their house was built and they landscaped.

Would you mind sharing your landscaping plan? Just curious to see the kind of detail that was required.
