The importance of landscaping is now realized by everyone in the world. The gardens serve the purpose of public recreation by refreshing the body and the mind. They are virtually a retreat for the public from the harsh strains and stresses of public life. Landscaping is done with a view to create a natural scene by planting of lawn, trees and shrubs. It is the imitation of nature in the garden and improves the total living environment of the people. We live in a vast planet which is characterized by different types of landscaping depending upon prevailing geographical and agroclimatic conditions. There are mountains, hills, glens, valleys, seas, rivers, forests, plains, deserts, lakes, swamps, streams etc. which comprise major part of natural landscape. Man has copied the natural elements for improving landscape around him and converted certain areas in the form of garden for his pleasure.
