Working land with a garden at the edge of it

The pattern out here is a house, an enclosed area around it that is watered and looked after, and beyond that land that gets managed a few times a year. Trying to garden the whole parcel is the usual mistake, and it is expensive in both water and time.

Capers grow well on this ground and tell you something useful about it: thin, stony, alkaline and dry. That is the profile Mediterranean planting wants, provided the ground is opened up before anything goes in.

Water comes from wells on most parcels, so the irrigation design starts from a measured flow rate rather than from an assumption about pressure.

What gardens around Llubí usually need

  • A clear edge between garden and working land
  • Irrigation sized to a well rather than a mains supply
  • Dry planting for thin stony ground
  • Almond and carob brought back into condition
  • Windbreak planting across open fields
  • Clearance of parcels left fallow
  • Firebreak margins around buildings
  • Seasonal management rather than weekly visits

How land and garden are handled differently.

Drought tolerant gardens

The planting this ground supports.

Garden clearance

Land that has been left for a few seasons.

How much of a finca should be a garden?

Less than most new owners expect. An intensively planted area near the house and managed land beyond it is both cheaper and easier to keep looking right.

Is well water suitable for irrigation here?

Usually, though it is worth testing for salinity and hardness before designing around it.

Do companies travel to the Pla?

Several are based in it. Give the exact location so the request reaches them.
