Welcome to Doug Scott from Redeem Your Ground, a landscape designer, blogger, husband, and father of two young daughters from Atlanta. This is the first in a series of posts he’ll share this month on basic gardening and how to create beautiful and meaningful outdoor spaces.
My dad’s a physician and words like “stat” and “triage” were used on a fairly regular basis while I was growing up. So when I started our landscape design business, performing a “backyard triage” at the beginning of a client project seemed to make a lot of sense. After all, like triage in an emergency room, it’s about prioritizing your efforts to increase the chances of bringing life to a threatened or otherwise lifeless space.
