Landscaping is expensive!!! Our condo complex has a small courtyard in the center, and a patch of grass in the front, and it cost us $12,000 to re-landscape for automatic sprinklers, the palm trees and plants, and the night time plant lights. We got about 14 trees, agepanthas, lillys, and a bunch of those pittosporum(sp?) bushes you see everywhere in CA… That and some of that really cool myoporum ground cover. Landscaping is over-priced… And landscapers rip people off, charging you $400 for a tree you can buy at Home Depot for $100. Oh wait, you’re paying them $300 to plant the tree and make sure it doesn’t die! WTFE.
