Learn how much time a new landscaping project will take!
If you are new to landscaping, it could be so hard to understand how much time or effort you should expect a new gardening or landscaping project to take.
 I like to use “the maintenance curve” to help give my landscape design clients an idea of what maintenance to expect from a new landscape renovation, and I'd like to share that with you today.

Want to share this "maintenance curve" concept + graph with your landscape design clients or viewers? Reach out at [email protected] and I'm happy to share a pdf version and other resources.
