Allure Mooloolaba 71-73 First Avenue, Mooloolaba
Thoughtfully designed, Allure Mooloolaba’s landscape offers colour and form while providing a raft of practical solutions that extend beyond beautiful aesthetics to low cost, fuss free maintenance.
Allure’s entrance landscaping provides multi-level interest with an Agathis robusta feature tree which will grow to 20m. Accent plants including Strelitzia reginae and Zoysia groundcovers located in the raised planter box help create an immediate substance. Coastal tolerant mid-level shrubs on the ground level soften the raised planter boxes to complete a green landscape palette.

Providing a variation of scale from groundcovers including Plectranthus argentatus, Myoporum parvifolium and medium-sized Metrosideros ‘Fiji Fire’ shrubs to large Livistona decipien palms that reach heights of 15 to 20 metres, will eventually screen the side of this building from neighbouring properties.

For medium and high-density areas, privacy and access to balconies share equal importance. Vertical landscaping combines with planter boxes assist with screening while creating enjoyable outdoor areas with favourable micro-climates.
