In this episode, the final for 2025, I speak with Breana Graham from Breana Graham Landscapes, a landscape architecture/design business based in Sydney working on high end residential projects.

Breana makes some great points in this chat about the importance of challenging the relationship between architect and builder so that they both improve.

She also talks about the way she does her plant schedules within her designs, which is a way I hadn't heard of before, but makes a lot of sense when she explains it.

One day after this episode is released, we'll tick over 250,000 downloads of the podcast, so thank you to everyone who has listened to an episode, but especially the guests who've taken the time to come on the podcast and share their story.

In this episode I catch with friend of the show, Peter Donegan from Peter Donegan Garden Design, a designer based in Ireland.

I always love chatting with Peter and hearing the creativity behind his designs, and in this episode he talks about a couple of recent award victories, including one we're he'll be representing Europe.

He also talks about his recent trip to a University in Turkey, as well as a potential garden he'll be designing in Australia.

In this episode I speak with Chris Varsamakis from Zorbas Gardens, a design, construction and maintenance business based just outside of Geelong in Teesdale.

Chris has gone from having his first horticultural job 3 years ago, to being a solo operator as recently as 14 months ago, to now having 7 full time employees as well as a couple of sub contractors on his books, so he's grown very quick, but as you'll hear, it's been measured growth and he's doing a lot of the right things to make it sustainable.

Chris talks about one of the keys to being able to scale that quick, and also shares his experiences of working with past guest and business coach, Paul Hamilton.
