About Us
Welcome to the Hedge Man
The Hedge Man has a rich history in the preservation and management of breathtaking gardens in South Australia. Established in 1979, our journey began with passion for the horticultural needs of the formal hedges and topiary to be found in parks and gardens across the State.
The Hedge Man is a small horticultural business that specialises in making the process of keeping a seasonally vibrant garden as simple as possible.
We believe that every green space has the potential to flourish. Our mission is to help you create and maintain a beautiful outdoor area that reflects your style and enhances your home or business. Whether you’re looking for a complete garden makeover or regular maintenance, our team of skilled gardeners is here to bring your vision to life.
Our company director Brigid O’Neill proudly sits on the board for the Master Landscapers South Australia (MLSA).

Increased Property Value
Investing in professional landscaping and maintenance is not just about aesthetics; it’s a strategic move that can yield significant financial returns in the real estate market. A well-designed and maintained landscape offers functional outdoor spaces which enhance the living experience and significantly boosts a property’s curb appeal assisting the creation of those crucial first impressions. With potential buyers captivated by an attractive garden before they even step inside the home, your property will stand out in the market, leading to a quicker sale and a higher asking price (as much as 30%). A meticulously maintained landscape also builds confidence in potential buyers that the home has been subject to regular care, alleviating concerns about potential hidden issues.
