12 Best Landscape Design Ideas for Perth’s Northern Suburbs

The northern coastal suburbs of Perth—Two Rocks, Yanchep and Joondalup—experience a true Mediterranean climate: long, dry summers under relentless sun, and mild winters that supply the bulk of the area’s roughly 845 mm of annual rainfall. Most rain falls between May and August (June alone averages 173 mm), while December through February often delivers less than 10 mm in total. These extremes make water efficiency and sustainability non-negotiable when planning any outdoor area.
