A shorter and more practical route is to get a landscape contracting 
license, or just contact your local/state landscape contractors' 
association to find out what the regulations and restrictions are. 
Usually getting the license involves passing a few tests on plants, 
landscape materials, and regs, and paying some fees -- not a big 
deal, if you're prepared.

Or do what Gene says -- find a partner who has a license and who 
wants to do the kinds of things you want to do.
