f16...most everyone starts over; builder generally puts in crap plantings with maybe a magnolia or bottlebrush decent plant/bush thrown in; I have seen a few palms in the newest neighborhoods installed by builder.

Some do-it-yourselfers (or those on budget) get their stuff from Lowes or a nursery; most folks hire out one of the landscaping companies for a total package. Can get pricey...for a designer, anywhere from 2,500 to over 6,000.
