Return to article: How to Hire a Gardener
on 11/22/2005 It is important to know the difference between a gardener, a landscaper, and a landscape architect.A gardener will take care and cultivate what has been designed and installed. Perfect for ongoing maintenance.Landscaper vs. landscape architect. A landscape architect has a college level degree in landscape architecture. They have the ability to see beyond this summer, or this year. Landscape architects can help you not only solve problems, such as poor drainage, but also create a long lasting, beautiful environment in your garden. There are some very talented landscapers, who are capable in various degrees. Most do not have classic training. I see so many new gardens that are over planted by landscapers (they look great for the first couple of years and by the third year it is a jungle).
