My name is
Tonia Gillespie and I formed Sanctuary Garden Design in 2006.
I have a Diploma in Garden Design and whilst I was a
student I was awarded the Gold award in the student design category at the
Festival of Garden Living in Adelaide for my display ‘leafy seadragon’.
Sanctuary Garden
Design offers services in garden design consultation, the
creation of garden designs including
planting plans, concepts , complete garden design plans (which can include
elevations and construction plans), and plant selection and supply.

Climate compatible gardening
Although we live in a very dry climate and face increasing water restrictions, I believe there is still an opportunity to have beautiful and productive outdoor spaces.
Creative design, utilizing appropriate materials and plants allows us to enjoy wonderful environments whilst making best use of the available water.
Gardens should complement the home, connect the inside with the outside and create an environment which is attractive and restoring ; a sanctuary to return home to.
I am passionate about all types of gardens but have a special interest in incorporating edible elements into gardens.
