Garden Care Guides
These guides come out of our Tbilisi crew's practice — not general advice, but concrete answers to the questions clients actually ask us. Each one carries the local context: Tbilisi's clay-limestone soil, hot dry summers, winter frosts, and the plants that genuinely thrive in those conditions. Where to start, what it costs, when the work is done, and what to expect as a result.
