Drought Tolerant & Low Water Use Landscapes
Today, many people are opting for drought tolerant landscapes. These are also known as Xeriscapes; the word has been derived from the Greek word ‘ Xeros’ which means dry and the word ‘scapes’, means scene or view. However, when we are talking about modern day drought-resistant landscaping, it’s with reference to installation of slow growing plants in a garden or yard. This helps conserve water and creates a landscape setting that’s water-efficient.
Water conservation is something we all should be concerned about, and we at Landscapes West are expert landscapers that have handled a large number of drought-resistant landscape projects. We have built a very solid customer base in and around San Diego, Fairbanks Ranch, Carlsbad, Encinitas and Del Mar. We also have a number of customers across Solana Beach, Del Mar Highlands and Carmel Valley.
Top Quality Low Water Succulents
While we can incorporate this concept of installing drought-resistant plants in your existing landscape, we recommend that these should be designed from scratch; and this reduces the resources needed to maintain them. We provide comprehensive drought-resistant garden installation solutions. Our company sources these specialized plantings from the best nurseries and plants them in a well-planned manner.
We look at the layout of the land and then help you with plant selection and recommend which irrigation and drainage systems will complement these installations. On board our team are skilled and experienced horticulturists with years of experience in this space; and they work in a concerted manner to ensure that the perfect balance is created in your landscape and that it looks stunning and works efficiently too.
Drought-Resistant Landscapes - Some Facts
These installations help you save a significant amount of money on your energy and water bills. This means, you will also save more money on maintenance. No matter which way you look at it, these landscapes are an excellent option for any property owner. When we are creating water-efficient landscapes for you, the different aspects we take into account are:
- Zoning - All the plants will first be grouped together in line with their specific watering requirements and this helps in water distribution across the landscape.
- Drought-Resistant Plants - In most instances, we install various low water succulents in these projects. However, we may add other plants and trees as per your preference.

Apart from this, we also install drought-resistant turf and mulch. Our experts will suggest this based on the soil testing they conduct. They will suggest which grass will grow well there and there are different varieties such as zoysiagrass, bermudagrass, bahiagrass, etc. These grasses turn dormant whenever there is a dry spell, after which it turns green after a rainy spell.
