Sarasota landscape design can be a marvelous sight to behold.
And if designed poorly can be a nightmare for years to come.
The major flaw that I often notice is a lack of usability and vision for future growth. We have all seen the stereotypical “we put the small hedges next to the driveway and now we have to cut a hole through them to get the car in the garage” mistake. However, correct landscape design in Sarasota goes far beyond the obvious “right plant, right place” mantra.
A natural flow, avoiding the “this place has been landscaped” look is what we all yearn for. We want a beautiful tropical ambience that does not look contrived. We want our landscapes to appear as if Eden has sprung up around us unaided by man. The truly “natural look” that takes many years of experience to design.
This is why you need a landscape plan. Without a plan that ties in all the different textures and colors into a seamless whole, it is likely that you will end up with an “uncontrolled jumble” and not the “controlled jungle” that you envisioned.
Another reason to insist on a professionally prepared landscape design Sarasota is cost containment. Rather than have “Joe-Bob’s Git-Er-Done Landscaping and Car Haulin'” service walk around and put boot marks in the dirt where he feels a tree should go, a true landscape plan affords you the option of empirically reviewing your project and making changes when you feel they are necessary.
Whether your budget is $50,000 or $5000, you will never lose by investing a small fraction of the landscape installation cost in a well designed plan.
