If comprehensive landscape design services are desired, then the usual process includes an initial meeting where design parameters such as the following are discussed:
Then measurements are taken and the plan is started in Vectorworks. After the Concept plan is finished, we discuss it together and decide on the hardscape elements and start to pick suitable plants. Then the Planting Plan is completed and a list of plants provided. Most often, the clients will then have their design bid upon by landscape contractors who will be comparing apples with apples. For installation purposes, quality landscape contractor references are available upon request.
