Using humorous cartoons and informative illustrations directed towards the homeowner, property manager, or future landscaper, this book provides an awareness of every encounterable landscape situation, the best products to purchase, and detailed explanations on how to perform assorted landscaping jobs. This is not another how-to book, but rather a reference with guidelines to maintain an understanding on various landscaping situations and what to expect when an area warrants professional help. Featured inside are tips and tricks for: lawn care, watering, drainage, planting beds, trees, shrubs, lighting, driveways, patios, walkways, retaining walls, water features, and flowers. At the conclusion of each chapter is a summary with an area of "Beware," which highlights the most important aspects of the chapter, and a section, titled "Saving the Green," which notes how to save money while being mindful of everyday landscaping decisions that affect the environment.
