Final pricing comes from the vendor option you pick in the app — you see the quotes before you commit.
A garden in the UAE is a life-support system. Between May and September, daytime temperatures sit above 40°C, rainfall is effectively zero, and anything green survives only because a pipe delivers water to it on schedule. That single fact changes the economics of gardening here: the hard part is not planting, it is keeping things alive through summer, and the cost of doing that depends far more on who you are than on what you grow.
One thing every scenario shares: the market for garden help in the UAE mostly sits in the AED 150–800 band, from one-off tidy-ups at the bottom to larger monthly packages and setup jobs at the top, and quotes for the same work vary widely between vendors. Comparing two or three quotes before committing is not paranoia, it is standard practice.
The equipment that separates balconies that survive August from balconies full of crisp brown sticks is a battery-timer drip kit. These screw onto a balcony tap or feed from a reservoir bucket, run thin lines to each pot, and water at 5am whether you are in the country or not — which matters, because the classic balcony-garden death is the two-week July holiday. A gardener can assemble a full balcony setup, pots, acclimatised plants and drip lines included, in a single visit; expect roughly AED 250–800 depending on plant count and pot quality.
Check your building rules before drilling anything. Most tower management companies prohibit fixing planters to railings, and dripping irrigation water onto the balcony below is the single most common source of neighbour complaints. Use saucers under every pot, keep planters inboard of the railing, and if you want climbing plants, use a freestanding trellis rather than anything screwed to the façade.
The word that matters at any nursery is acclimatised. A bougainvillea grown outdoors in a Sharjah nursery has already survived UAE sun and salty water; a visually identical one flown in from a European greenhouse has not, and the difference shows in July. Ask where stock was grown, favour plants that look slightly weathered over lush perfect specimens, and buy in October or November when new-season stock arrives and everything you plant gets five gentle months to establish roots before its first summer.
Many garden crews will also source plants for you, which trades a small markup for the right choices and free transport of heavy pots and soil. If you go that route, agree the plant list and an AED range in advance rather than leaving it open-ended — 'some nice plants for the front bed' is how a modest job quietly doubles in price.

Midday irrigation loses a large share of the water to evaporation before it reaches the roots, and droplets on foliage under full sun can scorch leaves. The fix is not discipline but automation: a controller or tap timer set to finish its cycle around dawn waters better than any human ever will.
A garden running its winter schedule in July is being underwatered by half; a summer schedule left running in January drowns roots and breeds fungus. The controller schedule should change at least four times a year. If you do not know how yours works, have a technician walk you through it once — it is a ten-minute lesson.
Paspalum rolls dropped onto compacted, salty or debris-filled ground will green up for a fortnight and then fail in patches. Proper re-turfing includes stripping the old surface, adding a layer of clean sweet soil, levelling, and verifying sprinkler coverage before the first roll goes down. If a quote does not mention soil preparation, it is a quote for a temporary lawn.
Yes, if it is the right species with working irrigation. Seashore paspalum is the standard choice because it tolerates heat and salty or TSE water; Bermuda is the tougher, higher-maintenance alternative. What kills lawns is not the heat itself but irrigation gaps — a broken sprinkler head in July shows up as a brown patch within days.
In most UAE leases routine upkeep (mowing, pruning, irrigation adjustments) falls to the tenant, while capital repairs like a failed pump or replacing a mature dead tree fall to the landlord. Contracts vary, so confirm in writing at handover and photograph the garden's condition on day one to protect your deposit.
It depends on use. Artificial wins in deep shade, small dog runs and rental properties where zero-risk matters; it needs no water and stays green in photos. But it becomes uncomfortably hot underfoot in summer and still needs brushing and rinsing. For areas where children play outdoors through the warm months, real paspalum is the kinder surface.
Twice a month covers most standard gardens: mowing, edging, hedge and shrub pruning, weeding and an irrigation glance. Large plots or gardens with many palms may justify weekly visits in the October–May growing season. Whatever the frequency, insist the visit includes checking the irrigation, not just cutting things — irrigation faults cause more damage than missed mowing ever does.
Dubai's Warsan plant souq offers the widest retail selection; the nursery belts along Sharjah's Al Dhaid road and around Al Ain are cheaper still. Provenance matters a lot: locally acclimatised plants have already survived UAE sun and water, while greenhouse imports often fail in their first summer. Ask where stock was grown before buying.
