Definitely not typical. I know the landscapers (five of them to date) I've worked with for clients and myself have stuck to their estimates unless more work was specifically asked for by the homeowner. I even know of one landscaper who put in more plants than was originally discussed because he didn't like the look at no additional charge to the homeowner.
Sorry you got ripped off like this.
