Landscape Planning

Before you pick up the shovel to change your landscape you should have a plan. University of Memphis Director of Landscape Joellen Dimond talks about what you need to consider in your plans. First you need to know what you want to accomplish with the change of landscape. Then you need to assess the site. Consider the location of the sun, the locations of structures, drainage, utilities and other things.  Also, consider how you want to use your land.
