LCA's Excellence in Landscape awards competition is held annually and recognizes landscape projects of special merit. Each project is judged on its own merit against criteria specific to each category. If the firm both designed and built the project, they may submit an entry that recognizes their design work as well. Awards are given for both residential and commercial landscape installation and maintenance, both interior and exterior. There can be more than one Grand, Distinction or Honorable Mention awards in any category since each project is evaluated on its merit.
