I have and have used the Sierra *Complete
LandDesigner* program, and had two complaints.
From my research, the selection of plants for
specific conditions is not terribly accurate, and
it is very difficult to accurately draw and
existing free form bed.
I also found that many of the plants I use aren't
common enough to be in their database, and I would
think that is part of what each of us is striving
for.
