On the ground

Planning for Tembisa

Climate and seasons

Tembisa shares the East Rand highveld pattern: hot, storm-driven summers, cold dry winters with frost, and high summer runoff across hard surfaces.

  • Summer storms between October and March drop a lot of water quickly onto largely paved plots, so falls and outlets decide whether yards stay usable.
  • Winter frost and dry air brown warm-season grass in open, unshaded yards.
  • Compact stands leave little soft ground, so runoff has to be directed rather than absorbed.
  • Strong sun on unshaded yards makes shade structures and heat-tolerant planting worthwhile.

Local conditions in Tembisa

  • Stands are compact and mostly hard-surfaced, so paving layout, falls and a defined stormwater outlet matter more than lawn area.
  • High foot traffic on shared and commercial frontages needs paving and floors specified for wear rather than appearance alone.
  • Water costs and dry winters push many properties towards artificial turf or drought-tolerant planting in visible areas.
  • Small yards benefit from combined solutions — paving, a compact seating area and screening planting resolved in one layout.
