Landscape Designer

A landscape designer has experience and training in horticulture, design and landscape planning. Their knowledge of horticulture means that they can make recommendations as to what is best suited to your garden. They are also skilled at incorporating hard landscaping and features such as arbours, pergolas, water, stonework and ponds into a scheme. A landscape designer can produce an accurate, printed design including a list of materials for installation by a landscape contractor. Many APL members are either skilled designers themselves or have connections with qualified designers.
