The openingWhy this idea is overlooked
The online yard-design category is validated at the top (the best-known service pairs human designers with 3D plans at package prices in the hundreds to low thousands) and flooded at the bottom with raw AI generators that render pretty impossibilities (plants wrong for the zone, decks over septic lines). The open middle is the operator who uses AI visualization for speed but sells a real deliverable: climate-zone-correct plant palettes, honest budget tiers, and phased DIY-able plans, optionally with local contractor handoffs. The bank's gardening cards (raised-bed-install-business, food-forest-orchard-design in gardening-growing.ts) are physical install services; this is the remote design product, and it can also feed those installers leads.
