    • Initial site visit- Discussion of planting styles that work for our garden alongside recognizing plant pallets and textures desired for garden space.

    • Site survey – Measurements of existing buildings, structures, hard and softscapes, and elevation changes will be recorded.

    • Masterplan- Overall layout showing hardscape and softscapes areas.

    • Planting plan- Layout of new plants to be added to garden space with sizes and quantities.

    • Construction Drawings- A set of technical drawings that may be referenced for the landscape installation process.
