That's how they've found you so far - I sure wouldn't complain that Google has found you and listed you -

well you see
i want VisionLandscapes to be the name of the page so when you type it in Landscapes it comes up with it because it has landscapes in its title
or would it come up anyway with the url in the title like it is?

Nope - you need to optimize the page for the words you want - and it will probably take quite some time to get yourself shown for the word landscapes - and it won't happen when it's run together - and NO ONE is searching for vision landscapes OR visionlandscapes - the only people who will be are those who already know you - so those really aren't the words you need to optimize for. Do your homeword and find what phrases people are using when looking for what you have - and those are what you want to optimize for.

You need to use the meta description and title - you need to have good titles on each web page with the proper keywords - and you need to optimize each page for the proper keywords - you will not be found by putting the words into the meta keywords. Then you need to do off-site optimization- that is having those same keywords as anchor text leading people back to your site (links done properly).

As to how long - depends on how much better a job you do optimizing in comparison to your competition - and how much competition you have. I've in fields competing with millions of sites - it can be daunting!
