(Format, 45 min. eps.) Two gardening experts are pitched against each other in a challenge to transform a boring family garden into an oasis of relaxation and fun. Designers and landscapers must first pitch their renovation ideas to the family, laying out their concept and vision. Once the family has decided which plan best suits their lifestyle and budget, a team of gardeners starts digging, planting and building. During the work, the family is encouraged to get their hands dirty, with each member working on a small project. On the last day, they are banned from the garden, and the windows and curtains are shut while the team works on a final surprise. A moderator guides viewers through each episode as the garden designers explain the reasons behind their concept and the family share their thoughts on their new outdoor space.
