Landscaping For a Great Garden 

Landscape design is also not quite the same as ‘garden design’. Garden design is landscape design that tends to be for private citizens, whereas landscape design tends to be landscape work done for corporate or public clients. The way that landscape design branches off of landscape architecture is that landscape design tends to be just that: an actual set of design plans for a particular area where landscaping will be done.

The internet is a wonderful resource, where you can find some really useful landscape design websites for you to learn how to carry out your own landscaping dreams. It’s all about the landscape design after all. With a clear landscape design you’ll be ready to dig in yourself or hire some landscaping professionals to make your dream a reality.

A very good do-it-yourself landscape design website is at The Landscape Design Site. Whether you want to implement some landscaping rocks, learn how to create a focal point or other similar basic landscaping activity, The Landscape Design Site has a tutorial for many do-it-yourself landscaping situations.

A more scholastic way to broaden your knowledge and understanding of landscaping and landscape design, is at the University of Florida’s ‘Basic Principles of Landscape Design’ . This landscape design page goes over the more abstract concepts, such as basic composition and other very art-related aspects of landscaping and landscape design.
