Lipa City sits at Batangas’ northern edge, where coffee country meets suburban development. The city’s mix of established residential areas, new subdivisions, and agricultural properties creates diverse landscaping needs — from compact subdivision lots to sprawling estates with productive coffee areas.

Halamanan provides landscape services throughout Lipa City and surrounding areas.

Communities & Properties We Serve

Mount Malarayat Golf & Country Club

We’re proud to serve clients within Mount Malarayat Golf & Country Club — one of the Philippines’ most prestigious golf and residential communities. Located in Barangay Dagatan at 1,200 feet elevation, this exclusive enclave offers year-round cool weather and fresh mountain air that creates exceptional conditions for landscaping.

The club features a 27-hole championship course designed by J. Michael Poellot Golf Design Group, with three distinct 9-hole layouts: Mt. Makulot, Mt. Lobo, and Mt. Malipunyo. Named “Best Golf Course in the Philippines” by Asian Golf Monthly in 2009, Mt. Malarayat sets a high standard — and the residential properties here demand landscapes that match.

The community also includes resort-style amenities: swimming pool, tennis and badminton courts, and a fishing lake. We design gardens that complement this lifestyle, creating private outdoor spaces that feel like natural extensions of the club’s manicured grounds.

Cool Summer Farm

We completed a landscape and lighting project at Cool Summer Farm, a private agricultural property in the Dagatan area. Working with farm properties requires understanding how ornamental landscaping integrates with productive land — something we specialize in throughout Lipa’s agricultural belt.

Familiarity with the Area

We know Lipa well. We’re familiar with the Dagatan area roads, local traffic patterns, and the best times to schedule deliveries and crew arrivals. The route from STAR Tollway through Lipa proper to the highland communities like Mt. Malarayat is one we’ve driven many times — we know where traffic builds up and how to plan around it.

Landscaping in Lipa: What to Consider

Elevation Advantage

Lipa’s elevation provides milder temperatures than coastal Batangas. This expands plant options slightly and reduces heat stress on gardens during summer months.

Volcanic Soil

The region’s volcanic soil heritage often means good growing conditions, though properties vary. We test and amend soil as needed to ensure plant success.

Agricultural Integration

Many Lipa properties include productive elements — coffee, fruit trees, vegetable gardens. Good landscape design integrates these rather than separating ornamental from productive areas.

Growing Development

New subdivisions continue to develop in Lipa. These newer properties often need soil improvement and careful plant selection for success in recently-disturbed construction sites.

Planting Conditions in Lipa

Transition Zone Advantage

Lipa’s elevation provides slightly cooler temperatures than coastal Batangas, reducing heat stress on plants. This creates better growing conditions than pure lowland areas while still supporting full tropical palettes.

Best Planting Window

  • Ideal timing: October-February — plants establish before summer heat
  • Elevation advantage: Less heat stress than coastal areas, more flexibility in timing
  • Volcanic soil: Generally fertile, though conditions vary by specific location
