Landscaping plays an important role in beautification and brings a smile to everyone who sees it. So, if you can't do it on your own, hiring a professional landscape designer is worth it. It's good that they are now available online to give you a free consultation.longislandlandscapinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12429707880036719707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642414018943766152.post-42135465330187372912010-07-21T11:31:07.962-04:002010-07-21T11:31:07.962-04:00Hi Susan,

Lisa put that in our landscape as another red plant to highlight the red trim in our house. I wasn't sure I would like it, but now I am a fan. It requires no care and it is just getting thicker and fuller all the time.<br /><br />I do have red fountain grass too and that grows rapidly as well. And I actually saw an even redder fountain grass called "Fireworks Red" at Kerby's Nursery earlier this year.<br /><br />Thank you so much for reading my blog. I love hearing from people!<br /><br />And, for my SW Florida Gardener friend, the total landscape makeover was about $3,000. This included landscape design (which was about $500 for our small yard, a very reasonable cost); all materials such as shell, mulch and edging; and of course the plants. Plant costs varied from under $2 for a 1-gallon liriope to $50-$60 each for our small trees and some of our more unusual shrubs, like the oakleaf hydrangea and the chaste tree. We have about 8 coonties in our landscape and they were $15-$20 each for small 1-gallon sizes. <br /><br />The cost would have been easily double and probably as much as $8,000-$9,000 to have a company install the landscape for us. So, yes, you CAN do it yourself and save a lot of money!<br /> <br /><br /><br />NanetteNanettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03086867513945257184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642414018943766152.post-39876929001950440272010-06-20T20:39:50.357-04:002010-06-20T20:39:50.357-04:00I've been following your blog and am really im...I've been following your blog and am really impressed with how everything turned out! We are in the same situation in that our entire back yard needs to be scraped and completely redone. It is so overwhelming! I've been thinking about having someone come and scrape all the grass/weeds but maybe we can do it ourselves...with the Bobcat! ;) Congrats. It looks great. I'd love to know what your budget was....SW_Fla_gardener_wannabehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09446130410484337134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642414018943766152.post-15664249118854821802010-06-17T16:36:44.253-04:002010-06-17T16:36:44.253-04:00It looks great!

I bet you're thrilled with the results and ready for a break.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01106128705768954876noreply@blogger.com
