What tools do I need to know to start a landscape and gardening design business?

garden landscape design

Years ago I worked in a amateur way in gardening maintenance. I realice that I liked it a lot but I don’t have the specific knoledge and experience to start a landscape and gardening design business. I have the feeling that I have the creativity for doing this but of course this is not all. Could someone help me telling me the kind of tools that I would require to start this gradually? Maybe I would requiere to know some landscape design software, etc. In short, what kind of tools would be necesary to have and learn. Maybe the thing would be more complex like doing an Business plan? I’ll thank any advice. Chris

Help me name my business?

small garden design

Hi

I’m setting up a business sorting ecological problems with ponds and lakes - when they turn into pea-soup, or the fish start dying or they have problems with invasive species. It’s a holistic approach; getting the lake/pond into a healthy ecological balance with the right environmental conditions and the right mix of plants and animals, rather than relying on lots of filters and chemicals.

I’d mostly be giving advice on how to solve problems for the owner to implement, some lighter practical jobs and subcontracting/ supervising the heavier practical work for clients who want me to do it.

As I’m setting up on my own, it’s easier for me to start small and sort out small garden ponds mostly to being with as well as designing new ponds, but my background is in solving problems in larger lakes and I’m planning to move back into that area in the future - so I need a name that won’t limit me to small-scale stuff.

Please help, I’m really short of inspiration for what to call it!
