Want to be a Landscape Gardener?

A Landscape Gardener or architect is responsible for the outdoor space making it in an attractive way. To create the designs, the architects need to use computer software called CAD (computer-aided Design). It provides both creative and practical support to transform your garden.

In most cases, the landscape gardener begins with an initial client to look at the garden and discuss client needs and what they are looking for out of it. This is usually followed by a survey. On the 2nd meeting, this is to discuss generally about the budget and a more precise plan. The garden designer then starts to put into place the concept and ideas, with a working master plan with 3D perspectives. Once it is finished, the specifications are passed on to landscape contractors to price accurately.

Whenever starting a landscaping project, a consideration you should look at is what kind of tools do you need? If you are new to the job, finding the right tools is very important, so talk to one of the representative at World of Mowers who will help you to choose the right ones. Choosing the right tools for your projects makes gardening much easier. High quality ones will provide you with many years of good service when they are properly cared for.


Different basic tools:

Trowels: small hand tools with a scoop for moving dirt. Those are used to dig small holes.

Shovels: most people use them to dig out a flower or vegetable bed in preparation for planting.

Garden Forks: used to make deep cuts into soil, making it easier to turn over large chunks. It is a good tool for cultivating and working soil into manageable sizes

Pruning, trimming and cutting tools: Pruning shears are needed for trimming up shrubs, trees and many landscape plants. The best tools used for trimming are heavy-duty loppers.
