Step one
• Get a map of the
site or measure the
area to be Landscaped.
• Locate North.
![Page 5: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Site Analysis
• 1. Microclimates, good and bad spots.
• 2. Where is North..• 3. Seasonal Sun angles• 4. What Scale will you be using?
– For example: 1inch = 10 feet.
![Page 6: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Why the scale of your plan is important

Site Analysis
![Page 10: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Site Analysis
![Page 11: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Site Analysis – Topography • 0-3% flat to gently sloping, possible
surface drainage problems, soil depth is greater here.
• 3-8% gently sloping to rolling terrain soil concentration in low areas.
• 8-15% hilly often rocky terrain, site modification cost increase. Soil depth is very limited.
![Page 12: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Site Analysis- Sun Angles
![Page 13: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Sun Angles 41st Parallel
![Page 14: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Site Analysis• Identify the:
– Hot. -Sunny
– Cold. -Shady
– Dry.
– Wet.
Areas within the landscape, the micro-climates.
![Page 15: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Existing Plants• Old Plantings, Trees & Shrubs.
• Size of the plants.
• Health of the plants.
• Stage of development.
• Will new plants it fit in?
• If there isn’t any plants on the site, Why?
![Page 16: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
New Plant Locations• What will be the mature plant size?
• Shade and sunny locations.
• Will they adapt?
![Page 17: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

What are the Soils?
• What are your soils?
• Get a soil test.
• Has the soil been disturbed by construction?
• Is the soil compacted?
![Page 19: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Wildlife
• What is the existing wildlife?
• Is the existing wildlife a problem?
• Do you want to attract wildlife?
![Page 20: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Site Analysis
•North arrow•Sun angles•Micro climates•Wind direction•Views•Topography•What is the goal?
![Page 21: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Develop a Design Theme• Such as:
– Rose Garden.– Victorian Garden.– Shade Garden.– Wood land Garden.– All Gardens Should be Water Wise.
![Page 22: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Water Wise Garden• 1-Plan and Design.
• 2-Create practical turf areas.
• 3-Improve the soil.
• 4-Use Mulches.
• 5-Irrigate efficiently.
• 6-Maintain the Landscape.
![Page 23: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Design Principals
• Unity: consistent style.
• Texture: surface quality of plants & objects.
• Balance: symmetrical vs. Asymmetrical.
• Transition: sequential order.
• Proportion of Scale: size of plants & objects.
• Focalization: curved lines, features.
![Page 24: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Transition
![Page 25: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Step Two
• Schematic Design First.– Get your General ideas down on paper.
• Different areas around the property have different functions. – like play areas, bar-b-queue areas,
private secluded areas. – Storage area for tools.– Areas for pond, greenhouse, gazebo.– Plant types are the last thing you do.
![Page 26: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
![Page 27: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Define your landscape areas
• Define a clear separation between:
– Turf* Do not do turf corner to corner.
– Shrubs*– Trees.– Perennial Beds.– Play.– Vegetable Gardens.– Hard-scape Areas*.
• Why, for ease of mowing/maintenance.
![Page 28: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
![Page 29: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Step Three
• Draw in your Hardscape areas– Patio.– Walkways.– Decks.– Bar-B-Que area.– Retaining Walls.– Pond.– Garden Structures.– Fences.
![Page 30: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
![Page 31: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Step Four• Draw in the areas for:
– Shrubs.– Perennial Gardens.– Vegetable Garden.– Trees.– Specific Plants are the last thing you do.
• Make Notations on your plans on the heights for the above plants.
![Page 32: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
![Page 33: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Color Theory
•There are no bad color combinations in Nature.
•What colors do you like?
![Page 34: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
However: • In the Garden Color should:
– Be calming– Have a sequence– Repeat itself
![Page 35: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Step Five•Time to add Color
–Seasonal Color for shrubs, trees, perennials.•Winter texture, Spring, Summer and Fall color.
–Write the colors in on your design.
![Page 36: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Step Six• THE VERY LAST THING
• ADD Specific plants.
![Page 37: Site analysis and Landscape Design Catherine Wissner Horticulturist University of Wyoming, Cooperative Extension Service Laramie County, Cheyenne, Wyoming.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551bd491550346b9588b56a0/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
