Gardener in Málaga
In Málaga city, we care for villa gardens on the eastern hills, townhouse patios by the sea and chalets on the outskirts.
Málaga, the capital of the Costa del Sol, has a long gardening tradition. The historic Jardín Botánico La Concepción and the Parque de Málaga show just how well subtropical plants grow here. On the eastern hills, El Limonar, Monte Sancha and Cerrado de Calderón have villas with mature gardens, while Pedregalejo and El Palo have townhouses close to the sea.
On the edges of the city, Churriana, Puerto de la Torre and Guadalmar have chalets with larger plots. Across Málaga we offer tree pruning, garden maintenance, hedge trimming and irrigation work. Big trees such as ficus and jacaranda often need professional pruning to keep them safe and in proportion.
City gardens are often close to neighbours, walls and streets, so careful work matters. Branches that hang over a boundary, roots that lift paving and palms above a pool all need a sensible plan. We take all the cuttings away and leave the garden clean, which is especially welcome on a busy city street.

Gardening in Málaga: a subtropical climate
Málaga's warm climate lets you grow plants that would struggle elsewhere in Europe, including ficus, jacaranda, palms, mango and avocado. These plants grow fast and can get very large in a city garden. Regular pruning keeps them healthy and stops roots and branches from causing problems near walls and buildings.
- Prune jacarandas after they flower, so you can still enjoy the purple blooms.
- Don't plant large ficus too close to walls, drains or paving.
- Water avocado and mango trees deeply in summer.
- Check palms regularly for red palm weevil, which is found across the province.
