Re: how much to lanscape small garden?
missy06, I'm thinking of sorting out mine too, but won't pay a landscaper to "design" what's so readily available in magazines or on the internet. If you liked what you saw on a tv programme, why not try to sketch it out, then scan a few magazines, adding features you like, then take it down to a garden centre and ask for advice on what plants to put etc.
If you didn't want to do the actual work yourself you could ask a gardener/builder to do it for less than a designer would demand. This is all theory as I haven't done this yet, but I am browsing and [broken link removed]
Oh, and the advice from my mother: watch where the sun rises and sets in summer/winter, watch where the neighbours' cats come to bask in the sun, build up your garden little by little rather than trying to do it all at once.....
