What is landscaping?

Landscaping is the process of improving the look of a particular piece of land by planting shrubbery, flowers, grass and/or trees on it. It sometimes involves changing the contour of the land to make it more appealing or more useful.

Adding grass is part of the typical landscaping of a yard or park area. Filling in the area with an appropriate amount of other plants gives the land an aesthetic appeal. In making decisions on the types of plants to use in landscaping, it is necessary to consider the climate, the amount of sun and the soil type to ensure that the plants have the best chance to survive.
