First impressions sell homes

Panacea Landscapes founder Shannon Blackbourn is making her mark, earning first prize at the Melbourne International Flower & Garden Show Balcony Garden Competition in 2024 and third place in 2025.

Having worked in landscaping since the age of 16, Shannon describes running her own business as “a rollercoaster, but one I wouldn’t have any other way”.

“My introduction to horticulture was as a young child, in my Grandma Shirley’s garden,” she says. “Every home she lived in was filled with beautiful flowers. I didn’t realise it then, but it would shape my future.”

Today, Shannon works across projects ranging from compact courtyards to expansive estates, bringing creativity and practical expertise to every space. As Canberra’s property market becomes increasingly presentation-driven, Shannon says well-planned landscaping and ongoing garden maintenance can play a critical role in maximising sale price and reducing time on market.

“First impressions start at the street,” she says. “A clean, well-maintained garden helps buyers immediately connect with a home. Simple updates, seasonal planting and tidy outdoor spaces can make a real difference when it comes to attracting interest and achieving a strong result.”
