Gardener in Alhaurín de la Torre
Just inland from Málaga airport, we look after family gardens, lawns and hedges in the urbanisations of Alhaurín de la Torre.
Alhaurín de la Torre is a town just inland from Málaga airport, below the Sierra de Mijas. Around the centre are many residential urbanisations of detached houses and chalets with private gardens and pools, for example around Lauro Golf and Pinos de Alhaurín.
Most homes here are family homes that are lived in all year. Gardens are used every day, so owners want lawns that stay green, hedges that give privacy and a tidy area around the pool. Palms, fruit trees and drip irrigation are part of most gardens.
The jobs we do most in Alhaurín de la Torre are regular garden maintenance, lawn care, hedge trimming and palm pruning. We also check and repair irrigation systems, as a broken sprinkler can turn a lawn brown in a few hot days. If you want a garden that needs less work, we can help you replace part of the lawn with drought-tolerant planting.

Gardening in Alhaurín de la Torre: lawns in the heat
Away from the sea breeze, summers in Alhaurín de la Torre are hot, and lawns and hedges feel the heat. A well-set irrigation system, the right mowing height and feeding at the right time make all the difference. Fruit trees such as oranges and lemons grow well here with regular water.
- Keep mower blades sharp – torn grass turns brown faster in the heat.
- Run sprinklers before sunrise, when less water is lost to heat and wind.
- Trim privacy hedges in spring and again in late summer.
- Remove dry palm fronds once a year and watch for red palm weevil.
- Edge lawns along paths and beds regularly to keep a neat line.
