 Good Landscaping Product July 4, 2008

I looked at a few software programs and downloaded free trials and none came close to the power and ease of use of this program.
The program offers many options that you can spend hours looking through. The plant library has a good selection. You can search for plants pretty easy, name, zone, sun requirement and about 20 other attributes. A blank search with no specific requirements showed 3,784 plants.
I found that it was good to design the landscaping in 2D so I could see the flower beds, patio, paths, etc. and where they were located with respect to the house. The 3D tools are helpful in visualizing how it should then look in `real life'. I definitely made changes to my original idea after using the software. There are built-in templates you can use - they're okay if you don't already have an idea of what you want.
I do recommend watching the tutorial videos they were quite helpful. Bottom line, I think it's a good bargain and recommend it before you take on a project.
 Not exactly as easy as it looks June 13, 2008

Some wonderful features. Unfortunately the tutorials don't seem to give correct information. Appears to have a bug in the plant library, sometimes the pictures of the plants will appear as shown in the tutorial other times the list gets shortened and you don't get any pictures of the plants at all. I'm still trying to figure out how to make a curved path and to get my plants to be shown in the draft version and in 3D.
