I have a friend that just bought her first house in BR. There’s currently no landscaping, only grass. Is there a landscape architect that anyone recommends? This is a starter home, but it would be nice to get a good plan for her. Thanks in advance.

Steven Gremillion does good work and his prices are fair.

Green Escapes Nursery in Prairieville. They'll design work without charging extra for it as long as you use them for installing the landscaping. Most landscaping architects are going to charge you just for the design separate and apart of the cost of the landscaping itself.

I may be wrong, but a landscape architect for a "starter home" may be a bit of overkill, but whaddaiknow? I'm sure they'll ask her budget before they break out a pencil.

Most decent local landscapers or landscape suppliers can help with a little patience.

We spoke with the people over at Plant Tech on Jefferson several times and they helped us come up with a plan. And then bought most of plants from them, and did it ourselves.

Whoever helps her, deserves compensation in some form.
