    Landscaping:



    Is Professional
    Landscaping Worth the Cost? Realtors and Business Owners Say Yes.



    The term landscaping refers to the process whereby
    individuals or companies manipulate the natural environment to create a
    specific effect or look. The process relies heavily on planting ornamental
    flowers and plants, but can also involve the installation of other features
    such as a water feature, decorative walls or other decorative structures. The
    idea is to create a balanced and natural overall look rather than individual
    features. There are a variety of reasons people look to have an area landscaped
    ranging from simply wanting the grounds around their homes or businesses to be
    more attractive to creating a beautiful area that supports
    recreation. 



    Landscaping is hardly a new concept. Elaborate gardens have existed since the
    beginning of recorded time, on every continent in the world. In ancient times,
    the areas around sacred structures such as temples and palaces were often
    landscaped, but private dwellings also utilized landscaping techniques. For
    example, the ancient Romans often built elaborate courtyards that could only be
    enjoyed by the inhabitants of the house, while the Mayans used landscaping
    techniques to beautify temples. Native Americans not only used landscaping
    techniques to beautify areas, but increased crop production by building
    ornamental terraces. 



    In most cases, landscaping is applied to a specified area, such as the areas
    immediately surrounding a home or business. In most cases, the landscaper will
    outline ideas on a sketchpad prior to breaking ground. This way he or she can
    determine the best way to utilize existing structures and features such as
    large trees, homes, etc and incorporate immovable items into the overall design
    while sketching in ideas for a design. 



    A landscape design usually starts with dropping in pathways between existing
    features and structures. The landscaper then begins building in additional
    features such as ponds, water fountains, gazebos, benches, retaining walls,
    piers and more. After the framework has been laid out, the landscaper will
    start filling in various areas with trees, shrubs and other flowering and
    non-flowering plants in order to round out the design. Landscape designs can be
    themed or not, depending on the tastes of the designer and the home or business
    owner. 



    It's no secret that landscaping adds visual interest to a location, but it can
    also add value. Homes and other structures that have professional landscaping
    treatments done garner more interest and tend to command a higher price than
    those that don't. And businesses who invest in landscaping often experience a
    greater amount of success as customers tend to perceive them as more reliable
    and trustworthy than those who don't. 



    This is why many realtors and home improvement specialists often recommend that
    homeowners and business owners alike invest in professional landscaping. So, if
    you or someone you know is interested in having professional landscaping done
