Our team preparing to plant native species at a large open terrace for an upcoming gym in South Mumbai. This is the first step in creating a vibrant, sustainable landscape.
The first stage of planting is complete at this gym terrace in Breach Candy. We've used a mix of Heliconias, lilies, and ferns, and are now waiting for the monsoon to work its magic.
A photo dump of our recent projects. From small balconies to large landscapes in Mumbai, Dehradun, and Karjat, we are proud of the diverse and sustainable gardens we are creating.
We draw garden inspiration from our travels around the world. From the manicured lawns of Istanbul to the natural green walls in Georgia, we are always learning and bringing new ideas to our designs.
A recap of our work in 2023. We've enjoyed greening every inch of balconies, terraces, and indoor spaces with creative, custom-made, and sustainable solutions.
About this collection
We do not just drop off plants. When we arrive on-site, our first step is analyzing your specific sunlight and wind patterns. Whether it is a terrace in Breach Candy or a villa in Karjat, we spend hours preparing the soil, mixing organic nutrients, and setting up native species that thrive in your micro-climate, rather than ones that look good for only a week.
How We Build Ecosystems
For us, a garden is not a static decoration. It is a living system. Our process starts with a site study to understand the micro-climate. We look at sun paths, wind direction, and soil quality to determine which native plants will genuinely flourish. This approach avoids the waste of constant replanting and ensures your space remains healthy throughout the seasons.
The Peepal Team
We are a collective of gardeners united by a mission to create spaces that are good for people and the planet. Our team includes individuals from diverse backgrounds, including women and folks with special needs, all working with a shared commitment to sustainable practices. We do not use chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Instead, we use neem-based repellents and nutrient-rich organic potting mixes that are safe for your children and pets.
Our Execution Workflow
- Site Analysis: We evaluate light, water availability, and structural load.
- Native Selection: We choose hardy local plants like Madhumalti, Kaner, and Son Champa.
- Organic Setup: Our soil preparation focuses on long-term fertility without synthetic chemicals.
- Maintenance: We teach you how to care for your space, ensuring it grows and thrives long after we finish the initial planting.
From small balcony transformations to large farmhouse landscapes, our team handles the heavy lifting, logistics, and site cleanup, leaving you with a garden that works with nature, not against it.
