What Is Landscaping?
Landscaping is the process of designing, improving, and transforming outdoor spaces to create attractive, practical, and long-lasting environments — combining hard landscaping (patios, driveways, decking, pergolas) with soft landscaping (lawns, planting, trees, seasonal displays).
A professionally designed landscape considers drainage, sun exposure, soil quality, and future maintenance — not just appearance.
