Have you ever considered why some landscapes look more appealing and cohesive than others? What

makes some designs work and others not work so well? What style of garden appeals to you and how do you envision using your garden space? Are there drainage issues or is there a need for more privacy from a neighbor? Is there a focal point you would like to feature? A lot of factors need to be considered before investing in hardscapes, plants and installations. In this course, attendees will learn about basic landscape design concepts, how to survey their space for design considerations, and create a plan before investing in hardscapes and plant material. Creating an overall design concept for your specific garden space will save both time and money.
