Here are some simple tips to making any landscape project affordable.
Break your landscape up into phases.
Start by drawing, or hiring a professional to draw your plan. Don't be afraid to shoot for the moon with the plan either. Consider it a master plan to work from. Add water features, pools, patios, decks, etc. After all, it's your Stay-Cation resort.
Next, do the hardscape. Build the retaining walls, get the water fall done, plant trees, have the bed areas prepared. And that's it. Fall is a great time for hardscaping.
Soil & Plantings. Spread the fresh top soil in the bed areas. Buy, layout, and plant all the perennials, shrubs, etc. Spread the bark. Seed, hydro-seed, or sod and be done. Breaks the expense up nicely.
Consider installment payment plans.
It is not a bad option... Kind of two-fold. First, you are already tackling the project in phases. Now you have the option of making installments on each phase.
The benefits. You are moving forword with your plan. The project has just become very affordable.
