Is Landscape Architecture a real career?

What is a BLA degree??..

if your talking about normal landscaping ide say no becuase they rarely work in the winter, and rainy days etc. its not stable
It actually started with the hanging gardens of Babylon - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanging_Gardens_of_Babylon And yes, Frederick Law Olmsted coined the term Landscape Architecture and launched the profession in America with his design of Central Park. But to answer the question - YES! Landscape Architecture is a real profession that is alive and thriving. A BLA is a bachelor's degree in Landscape Architecture. There are hundreds of universities around the world that offer Bachelor, Masters, and PhD in Landscape Architecture. http://www.land8lounge.com/notes/Universities
