    Take a look at the tips provided here, and start planning your own landscaping improvements.

    You can benefit from the advice of a landscape designer as you plan your outdoor space. Be sure to scrutinize work samples, cost projections and detailed schedules from anyone you might hire. Remember that you should also collect references from your designer. References should be for both professional and personal references. When you are checking into these references, make sure you ask if the job was done as stated and according to schedule and if it stuck to the budget that was quoted.

    Select good products instead of inexpensive ones. Low quality items can be found in many home improvement stores. Visiting a store that specializes in landscaping will net you higher quality products with the added benefit of being able to get advice on your product choices from the employees. The extra cost associated with the specialty store will be worth it when you see the results.

    Spending as little as possible often gets you what you pay for. While you can get cheap landscaping items, the quality may suffer as a result. Whether you are new at landscaping or an old pro, try a specialty store. They will be able to guarantee your purchases and give you valuable advice on your project.

    Landscaping encompasses a whole lot more than just planting trees. Including wood, iron or cement structures in your landscaping design can add both substance and texture. Pergolas, birdbaths, archways and decks add beauty and make a yard look more interesting. No matter what your price range, you can find many accent pieces that can fit into your budget.

    Plant things that are native to your area. Local plants are simpler to take care of since they are used to the soil. This means you can almost ignore them and they'll still thrive. Your local gardener probably has lots of great native plant information.

    Location is very important when designing your landscaping project. Plants needs to be placed in particular areas of your garden to grow and mature. You should consider the amount of shade, light, and wind the plants will be exposed to, as well as the weather in your area.

    If you want to add some beauty to your landscaping, incorporate a variety of flowering plants, and trees to add color. Not every shrub and tree is green; many have deep red or other colors of foliage, and some have profuse blooms in certain seasons. Don't forget that some trees and shrubs have colorful foliage or flowers during part of the year. Incorporate this knowledge into your landscape plan.

    Add some variety to your flower beds and borders with the addition of ornamental grass. Adorning grass is great for complimentary texture in flower beds. They can also be used as borders themselves. With such a wide selection, it won't be hard to find the perfect grass to complement your yard.

    With a well-executed landscaping plan, you will transform your lawn and garden into an outdoor space that is the envy of the neighborhood. The hardest part of the process will be convincing them that you've done the work by yourself, because the tips in this article will make your job look totally professional. Have fun and good luck!
