Built for real low-water yards
What an honest xeriscape plan has to get right.
Drought-tolerant planting that holds together
Agave, ornamental grasses, succulents, and natives grouped so the bed reads as designed, not as a gravel pit with three plants in it.
Gravel, boulders, and hardscape
Decomposed granite, rock mulch, boulders, and dry paths placed against your house, so the no-lawn look still has structure.
Front yard or backyard, your call
Convert the thirsty front lawn for curb appeal or the back for low upkeep. Keep a small patch of lawn or lose it entirely.
Everything from one yard photo
Dozens of design styles for any outdoor space, ready in under a minute.
