Should I buy plants from a greenhouse or let my landscaper buy them?

• <div><p>It’s usually best to buy plants from a local greenhouse or nursery yourself, but landscapers are also a reliable option. First, you can choose exactly what plants you want based on their appearance rather than relying on your landscaper to choose. Additionally, while it’s more time-consuming to go buy the plants yourself, you’ll often save money because landscapers charge for delivery and may upcharge the plants. You can also speak to a professional at a nursery to ensure you understand how to care for your plants and get the most long-term value.</p></div>

What are the main flower types?

• <div><p>While there are over 400,000 different flowering plants worldwide, there are five main types of flowers. These flower types are based on their lifecycles, giving each type a unique personality. These types are:</p><ul><li><p><b>Annuals</b>, which complete their entire life cycle within a single growing season. </p></li><li><p><b>Perennials</b>, which the tops die off in the winter but regrow in spring. </p></li><li><p><b>Biennials</b>, which complete their entire life cycle within two years.</p></li><li><p><b>Hybrids</b>, which exhibit either annual or perennial behaviors depending on location</p></li><li><p><b>Flowering shrubs</b>, which are small to medium-sized perennial woody plants, such as shrubs or evergreens.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Can you negotiate landscaping prices?

• <div><p>Landscaping prices are sometimes negotiable, but it depends on the professional with whom you&rsquo;re working. In most cases, you&rsquo;ll have a better chance of negotiating prices down the more work you have done. Your pro might be willing to discount labor if they&rsquo;re guaranteed a large job. You can also ask your landscaper to recommend more affordable materials that will still bring your vision to life to save.</p></div>

Q: How is lakefront landscaping professionally designed and maintained?

• <div><p>Professional lakefront landscaping addresses environmental factors such as water level fluctuations, erosion control, and native plant suitability. Regular maintenance includes pruning, fertilization, and ensuring drainage systems function well.</p></div>

Some landscaping projects may also help you get a higher sale price for your home.
