The latest ASLA Business Indicators Survey reveals that landscape architecture firms are growing in size, billing rates are increasing dramatically, and the client base for the profession continues to expand, most significantly in the public sector.

Among the findings: Landscape architecture firms with 50 or more employees now account for 16.5 percent of landscape architecture businesses, up from only 9 percent in 1999.
