landscaping?

i have a interview for a landscaping job today and i need a website with a lot of information about landscaping and what i should expect to be doing.......i have looked but could not find decent info please help!


I am a artist of this trait and my work dosent come cheap. Its hard work mixed with some thinking about where your going to plant or do what. Landscaping involves a dedication to nature and a talent for preserving nature and making it beutifull. it involves working with the land in alot the same scence a farmer would. You make cirtin types of gardens for certin needs and it involves a good eye for how the person who hier's you wants to see done. take a breath and relax, you can do it if your this interested. I realy cannot show you a website of what it involves but if you want some before and after pictures i took, e mail me before 1 am tonite and i will show you a verry good general idia of what it involves so you will be better prepaired, heck.... i.m. me A.s.a.p. . I will help you any way you need becuse i belive in the presevation of nature and i find that this typ of career is one of the best ways to do that.

My boyfriend owns a landscaping business but he wants to become an actual Landscaping Architect?

We live in the state of California... How would he go about getting his Landscaping Architect's License and a Landscaping Business License? Please help!
We live in the state of California... How would he go about getting his Landscaping Architect's License and a Landscaping Business License? Please help! (this is for Christy's question and answer) I believe its for both his career and the money… thanks!


It is amazing how inaccurate the responses people provide:
re: pondlady
you only need a minimum of an Associates degree in Landscape Architecture to qualify for the educational requirements to take the LARE.
re: Christy
If what she says is true about competition, all registered landscape architects who owns their own installation company will be out of business. It does happen in the industry, but whether you are a licensed landscape architect or not should not factor in how the installation business runs or profits.
Review the requirements for licensure from this website:

Since you said your boyfriend already have a landscaping business, he should have his business license in place already. You can always make your company name change if you so desired at your State's Corporation Commission.

Landscaping ..What would be the most important feature to add to a small front yard to make it most appealing?

I have a small front yard with two large oaks. Other than those two trees, everything else is drab, scraggly and/or eroded away. The yard is mostly on a slope and the soil is washing away down to the sidewalk. Other homes in this neighborhood are attractive and well manicured. I purchased this home a few months ago and am now ready to put about $3,000 dollars into professional landscaping. What makes a house attractive and appealing to you?
I live near Fort Worth, Texas. Our summers are very hot and dry. I will be adding an irrigation system, however, we are always rationed on water usage in the summer.

» Energy Efficient Windows Effect On Your Landscaping @ Green ...

Energy Efficient windows may be a great savings inside the home, but their effect on your landscaping can cause you just the opposite situation, as magnified rays are reflected from your windows directly onto vulnerable leaf tissue.

For several years I have observed the damage in turf grass and garden plants caused by the radiant heating that comes off of new energy efficient windows. In areas exposed to full summer sun for more than 8 hours a day, I have measured temperatures up to and exceeding 160 degrees beamed directly onto plant material. Plants that normally seem healthy fall through spring will begin to show leaf scorch, and die back to the ground. Areas around your house that were lush and green prior to your window installation now look dry and damaged through the hottest summer weather.

How To Discover If Damage Is Due To Energy Efficient Windows:

Looking Landscaping Resources | KC Gardens

In past years I've used various local landscaping services large and small all resulting varying degrees of frustration.

One irritation is after shopping catalogs and researching in books to determine what I want to plant often those selections aren't available through the landscaper -- and they require you buy plants from them. They either substitute or skip that part of the project only for me to later discover they didn't do what I'd asked.

They've also not done appropriate soil preparation -- they just dig holes and sloppily throw the new stuff in. Last year's attempt to plant what I envisioned to be perfectly pristine straight rows of boxwood hedges...turned out to be haphazardly spaced, squiggly and planted at varying depths. The end result looks like they were planted by a crazy drunk person -- not by what is supposed to be one of this town's top landscaping firms!

What I'd love to do this fall is order exactly what I want from catalogs. However doing the work myself is beyond my physical ability. I can't dig up and dispose of the old shrubs. And preparing the soil and planting new the new stuff all by myself is just more work than my aging back can handle in the short Fall planting season.
