Landscaping |
| Description |
Landscaping is an immensely popular art and practice involving improvement of the natural beauty of any given outdoor living environment. It is interesting to find that landscaping as an art dates back to thousands of years ago. This can be evidently witnessed in the ancient Roman homes built from 400 BC to 400 AD which had elaborate courtyards. The magnificent city gardens found in France in the 1600s and 1700s also speak volumes of landscaping as a form of architecture. However landscaping as a profession began in the mid 1800s and Frederick Law Olmstead is credited as the first professional and father of American ‘landscape architecture’.
