Abstract: In recent years there has been an excessive number of planning applications proposing to develop or part-develop local mature gardens, stretching from Balzan and Attard to Għaxaq (Villa Mekrech) to St Paul’s Bay (Villino Chapelle), to Sliema (Villa Bonnici) to Ġnien il-Libjani (formely, Ġnien Gaddafi) in Paola. Success in safeguarding these green oases in an otherwise drab concrete backdrop has been chequered – the development of the Balzan gardens is a fait accompli, the level of scheduling for some gardens, such as Villa Bonnici, has been downgraded while other gardens, such as Villino Chapelle have been spared any form of development, at least for now.
