Our beginning
Garden Buds is a small, local and family-owned business.
After migrating to NZ in 2011, Shadi found a new passion in working outdoors with plants. He finished Horticulture via Wintec, and had papers in landscape design from Unitec. His work experience in the field were from his previous Auckland and Nelson employers to whom he is continually grateful for.
'Garden Buds' is a product of providing landscaping services to a 'buddy'. Buds are for friendships, and new beginnings. These are what we hope to create when we transform your outdoor space.

What our customers say
"Great people to work with. Have engaged Garden Buds to work on two separate landscaping projects and shortly a third. Great customer service, attention to detail and at a reasonable price - would highly recommend to others."
- Paul (Stoke)
"I have used Shadi at Garden Buds for a number of landscaping projects - large (two new builds) and small (weedwacking, plantings, patches of lawn, fencing, putting up letterboxes etc.). He is always accommodating to fit in with tight time-frames, listens to what I want and has a good eye for design. He is fairly priced. The neighbour at one job commented to me that she would definitely be using Garden Buds in future as she watched them work and they worked really fast and didn't stop all day."
- Emma (Stoke)
"We have used Garden Buds several times in our garden and been really impressed every time. Nothing is too much trouble and the finish is always top notch. We highly recommend this firm for all gardening needs."
