Meet Lubana

Where it all began

I established plan & plant in 2012 as I said farewell to the corporate world. It was the perfect way to combine my business background with a life-long passion for green spaces and the great outdoors.

Now a qualified horticulturalist, I love creating and caring for beautiful, functional gardens that suit our climate and stand the test of time. Whether it’s placing a shade tree in the perfect spot or planting flower favourites to line a path, my work brings endless smiles to people’s faces (which brings a smile to mine).

Always on my mind

I’m intrigued by the unique beauty and complexity of all things botany – and the countless benefits plants bring to our lives and the environment.

For me, gardens offer the perfect opportunity to experiment and enrich. And I am always exploring ways to make the most out of different plants to ensure my gardens thrive.

A rewarding kind of chaos

I wear many hats both in and out of work. On any given day I could be creating concepts in the morning – and shovelling soil in the afternoon (with the help from a fabulous team of course).

With four wonderful children and a cheeky Viszla who takes up way too much of my time, my evenings and weekends are all about friends and family.
