Landscaping in Pollensa
Pollensa runs from a stone town at the foot of the mountains out to a north facing bay, and the two ends garden very differently. Say which you are in and we pass the request to companies working the north.

Sheltered in the town, exposed on the bay
The old town sits under the Puig with terraced olive above it, and its gardens are courtyards behind thick stone walls plus terraces cut into the slope. Shelter is generous, so the plant list is wide and citrus does well.
At the port the bay faces north and the tramuntana wind funnels straight into it. Front line gardens there deal with real exposure, and the pines along the front show which way the wind blows without anyone having to measure it.
Out towards Formentor the ground is rock with pine and scrub, dramatic and thin, where planting means built beds and species that ask for almost nothing.

Most requested here
Why is the port windier than the town?
The bay faces north and the mountains funnel the tramuntana into it. A few kilometres inland the same wind is largely blocked.
Can citrus grow here?
In the sheltered ground around the town it does well. At the port it needs protection from the wind more than from the cold.
When is the best time for work on a let property?
Outside the northern season, which runs later here than on the south coast. Say your letting dates in the request.
