Xeriscaping is a smart, sustainable approach to landscape design that is tailored for areas prone to drought. Traditional lawns? They’re swapped out for artistic sweeps of gravel and stones. By selecting native plants, incorporating gravel or mulch, and strategically placing hardscape features, you can create visually appealing and sustainable landscapes that thrive in dry conditions.
