A few of them are basic enough for those of you who only use your computer for e-mail and Dave's Garden. If you have intermediate computer skills in the use of office software, you should be able to negotiate one of these landscaping programs. There is garden design software out there for the home hobby gardener at a considerably lower cost than what landscaping professionals spend.
