I've lived with a problematic hillside on my property for many years. I finally hired a landscape designer to solve the problems. Before I signed the contract, I consulted HILLSIDE LANDSCAPING to be certain I was getting the best solution possible. I recommend this book to anyone with hillside gardening or erosion issues.

We bought a hillside property a few years ago and didn't know what to do to beautify our slope and make it more useful for gardening and outdoor living.
