About landscape design:

There are many kinds of landscape, and the way that they are designed by those who do landscape design depends on the people who are designing and on the natural resources available. For instance, Arizona design came about because of the need for sparse and austere designs to deal with the harsh heat and cold nights in deserts, and for the need to use such things as cactus plants to design where other plants and trees won’t grow.

You can study all sorts of landscape design by going to the book store and looking at the many titles dedicated to this subject. There are books about people who grow fresh tomatoes all year round in places like Canada or Maine, and there are stories of men in ancient Japan who grew wonderful foods without doing any weeding or gardening work, thanks to their ideas of how to work with the combination of plants and soil. There are book on Japanese design that deal with using simple stacked stones or placement of water near stone. And you can also learn how the people who work for big public gardens, like at the White House, design their own landscapes both for their bosses and in the gardens of their private homes.

So landscape design can be a reading adventure, as well as an adventure in the rich dirt behind your house. If you don’t have land nearby, you can learn how to design small landscapes inside, for example with Japanese table gardens, or banzaii plants that produce actual fruits and flowers.
