WHATS ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF LANDSCAPING?
Since you have decided to start landscaping, understanding the different types of landscaping can be important. For example, there is softscape and hardscape landscaping. With softscape, landscaping involves natural and horticultural elements such as flowers, bushes, trees, plants, and wood. These projects are usually cheaper and more aesthetically purposed than hardscape developments. Hardscape landscaping contains more non-living and man-made fixtures such as cement, walls, pathways, pavement, pools, fountains, and fireplaces. Hardscape projects usually involve more money and are used in many suburban and urbanized areas.
Landscaping can involve different types/choices within each category of landscaping. So for instance, let’s say you wanted to have trees in front of your business. The category of “trees” is very broad and should be narrowed down. This requires two needs. Firstly, talk with a professional landscaper from any of your local landscaping companies who can help organize your thoughts and needs for your business into a design plan. Secondly, understand what you want when it comes to each categorized topic. So let’s take trees. Instead of saying, “I want trees,” organize your ideas into a clear and narrowed category to help your landscaper create a good layout. “I would like medium level trees that cover the front windows aligning the two walls on the West and easy sides,” would create a clearer vision of what you want for your property’s makeover. This also allows the contractor to start developing a floor plan for your landscaping needs within your location.
