What are landscapes?

Answer 1

A landscape comprises the visible features of an area of land, including physical elements such as landforms, living elements of flora and fauna, abstract elements such as lighting and weather conditions, and human elements, for instance human activity or the built environment.
Specific uses of landscape include:
Landscape art is the depiction of scenery in landscape painting, landscape photography or other media
Landscape architecture is the art of planning, designing, and managing public and private landscapes and gardens. Related terms include:
Landscape design is the design of open space urban or rural areas
Landscape engineering is the technical aspect of landscape architecture
Landscape planning is the planning of large scale and/or long term landscape development projects
Landscape management is the care of man-made or natural landscapes
Landscape gardening is the practice of designing large scale estate gardens, and is usually applied to the 18th and 19th centuries, and seen as a precursor to landscape architecture.
Landscape ecology is a subdiscipline of ecology that investigates the ecological causes and consequences of spatial pattern, process and change in landscapes.
Landscape orientation of a rectangular page, painting or other graphic means that the longer axis is horizontal. (So named because landscape paintings usually have this orientation.) When the long axis is vertical, it is called portrait orientation.

A landscape comprises the visible features of an area of land, including physical elements such as landforms, living elements of flora and fauna, abstract elements such as lighting and weather conditions, and human elements, for instance human activity or the built environment. Landscape can also mean the objects around you in a building. Example; "I went to the mall, because I heard that the Landscape there is wonderful" or "I love the landscape of this house".

Spring is around the corner and it’s finally time to roll up the sleeves and put on the garden gloves. We’ve put together a list to help you lay the foundation for a great looking garden.

1. Clean up, blow away and rake

Once spring arrives it’s time to get going with the spring-cleaning. First of all, use a rake or a leaf blower to remove the layers of leaves that can lead to the grass moulding or decaying. The leaves and leftover organic material are an excellent addition to the compost.


2. Clear away weeds

Get rid of weeds as early as possible, before the sun gives them energy to grow. Cut away withered leaves from cultivated parts of the garden.

3. Loosen the soil

Soil loosening creates a better-looking flowerbed by making it possible for the oxygen to reach the roots of the plant. Hand tools make do for smaller beds, but if you’re working with larger areas you should use a rotary cultivator. It’s also possible to add a tiller attachment to some of the Husqvarna trimmers, which means one less tool in your garden shed.


4. Prune the trees

Fruit trees need pruning in order to stay healthy and bear fruit. Pruning should be done during the spring, but be careful not to do it too early as the incisions can dry out if the temperature drops below zero. Note that trees that carry stoned fruits, such as cherry, apricot, plum and peach, should not be pruned in the springtime.

5. Trim the hedges

Hedges with leaves should preferably be trimmed during the winter or early spring. Conifers are better trimmed during the growing period, once in early spring and once more in the middle of summer.

6. Mow the lawn

The lawn needs time to recover after winter, so don’t cut the grass too short the first couple of times. A grass-level of 5-9 centimetres makes for a fine, sustainable lawn, ready to be used.

7. Trim the lawn

If you want your lawn to look really good – don’t forget to trim the edges.

8. Do a power product inventory

Make sure your gardening equipment is ready for the new season. Charge what needs to be charged and sharpen what needs to be sharpened.
