Conflicting thoughts about this article. Yes, being a landscape designer means you’re not licensed but it doesn’t necessarily mean you are under educated. Commonly in practice, especially in the landscape architecture field here in NYC, landscape designer is the position before landscape architect. You have many landscape designers that are highly educated just not licensed yet. I think what the author describes as a landscape designer is probably a person who is passionate about landscape but has no formal education in the field.

The article is a bit general. In many states, construction ready products are the sole domain of licensed professionals, even in the residential area. That is the case in California. Landscape designers can produce a planting plan, but not a layout plan, or a set of plans. And other states may be similar.
Thanks for trying to sort the difference out, but there are many nuances, and each state has a different nuance!
