Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a landscape designer and a garden designer?

A landscape designer focuses on the overall outdoor environment including hardscapes, grading, drainage, outdoor structures, and plant placement across your entire property. A garden designer typically specializes in plant selection and garden bed design. At Higginbotham Design, we provide comprehensive landscape design services that encompass both disciplines, creating cohesive outdoor spaces with expertly designed hardscapes and beautiful plantings tailored to Georgia's climate.
