We live in the state of California... How would he go about getting his Landscaping Architect's License and a Landscaping Business License? Please help! (this is for Christy's question and answer) I believe its for both his career and the money… thanks!
It is amazing how inaccurate the responses people provide:
re: pondlady
you only need a minimum of an Associates degree in Landscape Architecture to qualify for the educational requirements to take the LARE.
re: Christy
If what she says is true about competition, all registered landscape architects who owns their own installation company will be out of business. It does happen in the industry, but whether you are a licensed landscape architect or not should not factor in how the installation business runs or profits.
Review the requirements for licensure from this website:

Since you said your boyfriend already have a landscaping business, he should have his business license in place already. You can always make your company name change if you so desired at your State's Corporation Commission.
I have a small front yard with two large oaks. Other than those two trees, everything else is drab, scraggly and/or eroded away. The yard is mostly on a slope and the soil is washing away down to the sidewalk. Other homes in this neighborhood are attractive and well manicured. I purchased this home a few months ago and am now ready to put about $3,000 dollars into professional landscaping. What makes a house attractive and appealing to you?
I live near Fort Worth, Texas. Our summers are very hot and dry. I will be adding an irrigation system, however, we are always rationed on water usage in the summer.
Water features, perennial plants and evergreens.

Landscaping Part of Sustainable Building, Too
Areas like these bring community back to the urban setting. They foster relationships among the residents, and allow them to host events that would not normally be possible downtown.
Well-designed landscaping can offer many advantages to a green building. First, the use of native plants in place of grass lowers the amount of water needed for maintenance. If drought tolerant or climate specific plants are used, an irrigation system may not even be required. Also, features such as bioswales and small detention ponds can significantly reduce the amount of stormwater being shed by a site. This is particularly important in urban settings. In Portland, all stormwater goes into a dual-purpose system for storm and sewer water. When the system gets overloaded, untreated water is dumped into the Willamette River. This can cause concerns not only for wildlife, but for humans enjoying recreations on or near the river too.

In past years I've used various local landscaping services large and small all resulting varying degrees of frustration.
One irritation is after shopping catalogs and researching in books to determine what I want to plant often those selections aren't available through the landscaper -- and they require you buy plants from them. They either substitute or skip that part of the project only for me to later discover they didn't do what I'd asked.
They've also not done appropriate soil preparation -- they just dig holes and sloppily throw the new stuff in. Last year's attempt to plant what I envisioned to be perfectly pristine straight rows of boxwood hedges...turned out to be haphazardly spaced, squiggly and planted at varying depths. The end result looks like they were planted by a crazy drunk person -- not by what is supposed to be one of this town's top landscaping firms!
What I'd love to do this fall is order exactly what I want from catalogs. However doing the work myself is beyond my physical ability. I can't dig up and dispose of the old shrubs. And preparing the soil and planting new the new stuff all by myself is just more work than my aging back can handle in the short Fall planting season.
