Landscaping
Landscaping refers to any activity that modifies the visible features of an area of land, including:
living elements, such as flora or what is commonly referred to as gardening; the art and craft of growing plants with a goal of creating a beautiful environment within the landscape.
natural elements such as landforms, terrain shape and elevation, or bodies of water.
human elements such as structures, buildings, fences or other material objects created and/or installed by humans. These elements are referred to throughout this site as hardscapes.
abstract elements such as the weather and lighting conditions
Landscaping is both science and art, and requires good observation and design skills. A good landscaper understands the elements of nature and construction, and blends them accordingly.
