Gardener in San Pedro de Alcántara
San Pedro has its own village feel within Marbella. We look after family gardens, townhouses and villas from the boulevard to Guadalmina.
San Pedro de Alcántara is part of the Marbella municipality, but it feels like a town of its own. Its long boulevard park runs through the centre, and a beach promenade links it with the rest of the coast. Many people here live all year round, so gardens are lived in and used every day.
Homes are a mix of family houses, townhouses and villas. In Guadalmina Alta and Guadalmina Baja, around the golf course and close to the beach, there are large, established gardens with mature trees and wide lawns. Linda Vista, Cortijo Blanco and Nueva Alcántara have smaller gardens, often with palm trees, citrus and other fruit trees.
Lawn care, fruit tree pruning and hedge trimming are some of the jobs we do most in San Pedro. Older gardens in Guadalmina often benefit from careful tree pruning and an irrigation update. For newer homes, we can help with a simple garden design or regular garden maintenance, so you have more time to enjoy the garden yourself.

Gardening in San Pedro: lawns, fruit trees and palms
Flat coastal land and mild winters make San Pedro a good place for lawns and fruit trees. Oranges, lemons, loquats and avocados all do well with the right care. Summer heat and drought are the main challenges, so watering and feeding at the right time make the difference between a tired garden and a green one.
- Prune citrus lightly after the main harvest, usually in late winter or early spring.
- Feed lawns in spring and autumn, and avoid heavy feeding in high summer.
- Water fruit trees deeply once or twice a week rather than a little every day.
- Watch palm crowns for yellowing or collapse, which can be a sign of red palm weevil.
