This isn't the most beautifully designed guide, but the content is the more important part anyway, and what it has to offer is pretty good. This guide is a definite must-have for landscaping enthusiasts, and even people who are just getting into it. It has all the information you need and is also full of clear and useful visual aids. To redistribute this package, you already get the PDF file and the HTML document as well as the images. You won't get a chance to edit the content however since the editable Word file of the landscaping e-book isn't included. Not good. You do however get a few more documents on the subject. I'm not entirely sure though if you are allowed to distribute or sell them as well. They would make for some pretty good bonus products, however. This package is best for landscaping or gardening niche websites. You will definitely have a good product for your customers with this guide.

Reviewer: Anita Danger
This eBook covers a lot of information and will be very useful for beginners and as a resource for home landscapers. For city dwellers or small yards there are some very helpful ideas, using the base plan drawing with symbols for example, will save you a lot of time and work knowing exactly where everything will go and what you are using . There are some good flower and plant descriptions that will be helpful in planning flower beds and other areas, make sure that any of the plants, flowers or trees you use are suitable for your growing region.

The basics and complexities of landscaping, November 29, 2007
This is quite a thorough e-book written for the meticulous, albeit beginner, landscaper. It has everything from landscape planning, construction and maintenance. What I like about this e-book is that it teaches how to integrate practicality with aesthetics in landscape design. Plus the synergy or the visual relationship between your house and the landscape – these two should look good together.
This is not only a landscaping guide – this is a very informative gardening guide as well. The types of plants, trees and flowers you can plant are each discussed in detail. There are types of ferns, roses and more. Of course, annuals and perennials are also well-covered. There are even instructions for irrigation here.
Particularly interesting is the section on landscaping for saving energy – so certain trees can actually help you reduce energy consumption!
I would have liked to see more photos and illustrations here, though. There are already some in the first few sections, but there were no more in the end. The sections about additional landscape constructions like terraces and backyard ponds, I believe, particularly need photos.
