About Landscaping Bible
Our Mission: Helping You Build Beautiful Outdoor Spaces
Landscaping Bible exists to give homeowners clear, well-researched guidance for lawns, gardens, and outdoor projects. We believe a well-designed outdoor space changes how you live, and that good information should not be locked behind jargon or sales pitches.
How Our Guides Are Made
Our editors build each guide from primary public sources — university extension services, USDA hardiness data, manufacturer specifications, and established industry references — and synthesize them into practical, step-by-step advice. We don't run field trials, and we don't claim hands-on professional credentials; where a project needs a licensed professional (irrigation, structural retaining walls, tree removal), we say so.
What We Cover
Landscaping Bible provides guidance across the major disciplines of residential landscape work. Our content library spans lawn care fundamentals — including mowing technique, overseeding, aeration, and seasonal fertilization programs — as well as soil amendment strategies, integrated pest management, and drought-tolerant design principles.
Our hardscaping coverage includes patio construction, retaining walls, gravel pathway installation, and material comparisons that help homeowners make informed decisions about durability, cost, and aesthetic fit. In our plants and trees section, we offer planting guides, pruning calendars, and species profiles organized by hardiness zone.
Our Editorial Standards
New and updated articles are drafted and fact-checked by our editorial team and reviewed before they go live. We update our guides to reflect evolving best practices, new product availability, and seasonal timing shifts. See our Editorial Standards for the full process.
We are committed to transparency. When we recommend a product, we tell you why — and we disclose our affiliate relationships clearly. Landscaping Bible is reader-supported: when you purchase through links on our site, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. These partnerships help fund our editorial operation, but they never influence our recommendations. Our loyalty is to the homeowner, not the manufacturer.
