Northern Beaches CLIMATE & GROWING CONDITIONS

The Northern Beaches Council district generally boasts a sunny climate with generous rainfall averaging 1219mm per year in Manly and the surrounding suburbs. For perspective, this exceeds that of the Blue Mountains by approximately 150mm per year, and that of Camden by as much as 450mm per year. Rainfall peaks during April and May with an average of 132mm per month. During summer the humidity spikes to a steamy 65 per cent, delivering hot and humid conditions.

Frost is not a problem for sea-level areas with the coldest average lows experienced during July at 7.9 degrees Celsius. During this month, a much lower average monthly rainfall of 101mm is experienced, keeping things relatively dry.

The climate for the Northern Beaches Council District is therefore described as being humid and sub-tropical, ranging from cool in winter to warm and hot in summer. Such conditions create the perfect blank canvas on which our landscape architects at Dapple Designs can work their magic. Creating stunning landscape plans for residents in the Northern Beaches Council District, like all other areas we service, is not just a job for us; it is a passion and an artistic outlet.

When doing your research, look for plants in Zone 3 and 4 (but primarily Zone 4) of the Plant Hardiness Zone map on our website. This will keep you on track when designing your dream garden. You can also take a few moments to look at our Plant Finder tool, which is also on this website to further narrow down your search for the perfect plant.

GARDEN & LANDSCAPE DESIGN Development Application REQUIREMENTS

The undeniable beauty of the Northern Beaches is no accident. The Northern Beaches Council works hard to protect the look and feel of the area, and it is expected that any renovation-type work would “follow the rules”, as their website puts it. Careful attention is given to conservation and responsible development, so it comes as no surprise that most development applications will require a landscape plan to be submitted along with other documents. This process applies to projects involving building decks, pergolas or removing trees.

DO I NEED A DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR MY PROJECT ON THE NORTHERN BEACHES?

You may be wondering if you need to submit a development application for your upcoming project. If so, we would suggest visiting their website. Here is a useful link for just that purpose - https://www.northernbeaches.nsw.gov.au/planning-and-development/building-and-renovations/do-i-need-development-application

Plans for council approval are usually required to be prepared by qualified landscape architects, designers, or horticulturists. Sound complicated? It doesn’t have to be.
