Hi. I am in Auckland (NZ) and have a small backyard that can use some
landscaping. The problem is that it is soggy in winter. I want to plant grass
and flowers plus put some pavers, but I am not sure how to
prepare the ground for it. This is my first time so please pardon my naivety.

    Hi there! How do you use your backyard? Do you have a budget for this project?

    My backyard was similar and I recently had artificial lawn put in. It was pricey but in par with me having to get it professional landscaped anyway.

    I don't know what your budget is but it might be worth a thought?

    You could lay a nice curved shape garden by the corner of fence and plant layers starting with 2-3 mtr trees at back down to 50-70 cm high plants at front. This will soften the fence line and give you something to look at while on the slab. Something for the kids also like a small structure to play in, on and around would complete a nice family back yard. If you are handy you can make you own small play ground copying parts of a local ground or there are kit sets available. Good luck,

    Install drainage for the grassed area. Raised beds for the plants, incorporate seating into the raised beds.
