Xeriscape that still looks lush

The core principles

Xeriscape isn't just rock. It's planning, soil improvement, appropriate plants, efficient irrigation, mulch, and sensible turf areas working together.

  • Plants grouped by water need
  • Drip irrigation instead of spray in beds
  • Mulch to hold soil moisture
  • Turf kept where it's actually used

Suited to local watering rules

With watering days and hours limited across much of the Front Range, a xeriscape keeps your yard attractive without depending on long lawn run times.

Irrigation included

Because we're irrigation specialists, the drip system is designed alongside the plants so new plantings get established and then need less water over time.

Xeriscape questions

Does a xeriscape need irrigation?

Most do while plants establish, and many benefit from light drip irrigation afterward. The difference is they need far less water than turf.

Can I replace part of my lawn with xeriscape?

Yes. Converting side yards, park strips, and slopes is a common first step, and the sprinkler zones in those areas are capped or converted to drip.
