Why Marbella homes get this: Marbella's gardens — palms, olives, citrus, manicured lawns — require specialist Mediterranean horticulture and significant irrigation. Junta de Andalucía water restrictions tighten in drought years, and drip-irrigation retrofits with smart controllers are increasingly required for new garden permits. Hurricane-grade pruning of mature palms is a recurring need, and Red Palm Weevil (Rhynchophorus ferrugineus) treatment is a recognised specialist service in the area.
