Transform Your Property with Xeriscaping Expertise
Many people confuse xeriscape with zero-scape, thinking that choosing a xeriscaped yard means landscaping with mostly rocks or other hard services and sprinkling in a few unattractive plants. In reality, this couldn’t be further from what xeriscape is. A proper xeriscape design is a multi-step process that begins with a thorough site evaluation to identify the various shady and sunny area and incorporates an understanding on how the different seasons and position of the sun affect the various areas on your property.

Require less maintenance
Xeriscape does not mean that you can’t have a lawn or turf area. Research has shown that a grassy area provides numerous benefits such as increased home value, ambient cooling of surrounding structures and let’s not forget a comfortable place to relax or play with kids and pets.
Eliminate or reduce the amount of lawn to mow
Applying an organic mulch around your plants will help the soil retain moisture. A cover of mulch in your garden will reduce weeds, thus reducing maintenance. As the mulch breaks down over time, the decomposing mulch will improve your soil and replenish soil nutrients.
Improve soil water retention
Beginning any landscape design with an understanding of the soil is critical. Appropriately amending the soil with organic material before planting will help ensure that your soil is healthy, has the proper watering holding/drainage properties, and helps your plants establish quickly in their new environment and flourish for years to come!
