• Can I do my own landscaping? 

  • At its core, landscaping is just designing and deciding what plants and items go where in your garden. So, basic landscaping is fairly easy. Just try and find the right soil and compost for your plants.

• Where do I start landscaping? 

  • The best time to start landscaping is in December when all your plants are dormant, but the best time to plan and research is the summer before. Look at how all your plants are behaving and growing in the heat and decide if you’d like them moved around or replaced.

    Some key things to think about are:

    - What do you have the space for?

    - Do you want some hard landscaping like paving or decking?

    - Do you want some structure like a gazebo?

    - Do you want seating and storage?

    Write a list of things you need and want, then draw a plan of your garden to work out what you can do with the space. Once you have a do-able plan, start researching for the things you need to purchase.
