[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What kind of consultation are you looking for? Someone just to come and talk generally about what you want to do and give you a broad ballpark of what it might cost (acknowledging that nothing can be set for certain until you've come up with a design, picked plants and other materials, etc.)? You can find plenty of landscape designers who will do that for free, but no one is going to give you their design ideas for free. Too many people would take those free ideas and then execute them for less on their own and the designer makes nothing for their time.[/quote] I’m certainly not looking for a scaled drawing or anything, though a rough sketch would be wonderful. I’m really just looking to have someone come look at my yard and give me a sense of how to deal with the old garden — walkways are needed, need a shed for storage, need new plants and am not sure what we have is weeds vs good stuff, and what to do with our retaining wall made up of rotting railroad ties. It’s my chance to reshape the yard and I have zero idea of what to do and when. So an idea of what zones the yard might have, whether I should keep or replace walkways, where to situate a shed, which plants I have and which I could add that might do well... that kind of thing. I don’t want to make any changes until I see what comes up this spring and summer. The beds are full of things that I can’t identify. [/quote] There is no way that anyone is going to do all of this for free.[/quote]
