Plantings become overgrown and outdated and walkways fall apart. If you think plants can't become outdated, you're mistaken. People want more color, more instant landscapes. Now people are thinking of curb appeal, function, and the overall look of their landscape and how it relates to their property value. One of the reasons we specialize more in larger plants is that people want things that are more mature.
Houses are larger, so people want an azalea that's three foot by three foot.
A big machine can pick up trees that are 25 to 30 feet tall and relocate them. It's what the garden design magazines are showing. Martha Stewart is talking about it. People are looking for more personal, intimate gardening. I try to integrate the gardens from the outside with the lifestyle the people live inside.
