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.

What are some good landscaping ideas for my garden?

Do you know any sites that has good landscaping pictures to get ideas? I have planted 6 fruit trees, and now need to do the landscaping and the ground work to cover the dirt and make it look nice.

If i don't cover the dirt, weed keeps growing and dried grass. Pls help, thanks!


Go to bhg.com (Better Homes and Gardens). They have landscaping plans for all types of yards and conditions, along with substitute plants for the ones they list in some of them. They also have a program on their site where you can create your own plan by plugging in the dimensions of your yard and adding plants the size you want to see how it will look.

One good way to keep the weeds from coming through is to put down black plastic before you plant. Fasten it down well (we cut about 6" lengths of wire and bend them like staples), cut holes in it where you want your plants, and plant them through it. You can cover it with mulch once you've finished to hide the plastic. The plastic also holds in moisture and heat, so you won't have to water as often.

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:
http://www.latc.ca.gov/
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.
