Gardener in Nerja
At the eastern end of the Costa del Sol, we care for villas, townhouses and fincas in and around Nerja.
Nerja lies at the eastern end of the Costa del Sol and is famous for the Balcón de Europa viewpoint, the Caves of Nerja and the beaches of Burriana and Maro. Behind the town rise the mountains of the Sierras de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama natural park. Villas and townhouses with terraces sit on the hills, the Capistrano urbanisation has communal gardens, and fincas dot the countryside.
Most gardens are Mediterranean, with bougainvillea, jasmine, olive trees and palms. In Nerja we offer garden maintenance, hedge trimming, palm pruning, irrigation and holiday watering, and we can help clear larger plots in the countryside.
In Capistrano, the shared gardens are laid out on the hillside between the houses, with steps and paths, so communal maintenance is a big part of the work. Villas on the hills often have a pool, palms and climbers that grow fast in the warm climate. Out towards Maro and the natural park, country houses have more land, and keeping it clear is as important as keeping it green.

Gardening in Nerja: between the mountains and the sea
Nerja's gardens are squeezed between the sea and the mountains, so many are terraced and sloping. Summers are hot and dry, and gardens near the natural park need dry vegetation cleared before the fire season. Close to the sea, terraces catch the wind and salt.
- Clear dry grass and scrub around country houses in late spring.
- Use drip irrigation on terraced beds to save water.
- Prune bougainvillea and jasmine after flowering.
- Choose salt-tolerant plants for sea-facing terraces in Burriana and El Chaparil.
