For many people, backyard landscaping is less of a job and more of an engaging and fulfilling hobby. It is something that allows them the ability to work with plants and soil, while also creating what they consider to be a work of art. For example, over the course of the winter, I watched my neighbor plant things and dig them back up, move them around and replant. It always seemed like she was either adding or subtracting something to her landscape design. It seemed like she was not really doing anything. Then spring came. Suddenly, all of her endless hours in the yard started to make sense to me as I saw the yard take shape. Now there are all of these cools plants and flowers that have sprung up, producing an amazing array of symmetry and color that I did not think would come about after seeing her so busy in the yard.
