Across Mallorca
A dry plateau above a busy coast
The marina de Llucmajor inland is thin soil over rock, walled into small parcels, with scrub, wild olive and dwarf palm covering anything not farmed. It is dry country, and gardens here work best when they accept that rather than irrigate against it.
The coastal strip from s’Arenal to Sa Ràpita is a different problem. Sandy ground, constant sun, salt on the breeze and a lot of properties used only in season, which puts automatic irrigation and a maintenance rhythm near the top of most briefs.
Across both, water is the recurring subject. Wells inland, restrictions in dry summers, and planting decisions that either commit you to watering or release you from it.
What gardens in Llucmajor usually need
- Dry planting for thin soil over rock inland
- Sand tolerant species on the coastal strip
- Dry stone wall repair on plateau parcels
- Automatic irrigation for seasonal properties
- Windbreak and shade on open ground
- Clearance and firebreaks on scrub parcels
- Pool surround planting near the coast
- Maintenance timed to the letting season
Most requested here
Is the inland part as dry as it looks?
Yes. Rainfall is low and the soil holds little, which is why the natural cover is scrub rather than woodland.
What copes with sandy coastal ground?
Juniper, tamarisk, rosemary, lentisc and grasses that tolerate both drought and salt. Ordinary garden soil imported onto sand tends to disappear.
Are there water restrictions here?
They vary by year and by municipality. It is worth designing so a restriction does not kill the garden.
