Xeriscaping

Essentially, Xeriscaping is the conservation of water through creative and informed landscaping. Xeriscaping places emphasis on efficient water usage, ideally using minimal amounts to sustain an attractive and functional landscape.

Practically speaking, Xeriscaping often results in landscapes requiring less than half the amount needed to maintain a traditional landscape. Xeriscaping also usually requires less fertilizer, less maintenance, and less mowing; resulting in more time to enjoy the space (rather than keep it up).

Xeriscaping often incorporates garden rocks, gravel, sculptural features and mulch. As well, drought resistant plants and shrubs are usually selected for this type of landscaping. Smartscape is adept, knowledgeable, and capable of implementing Xeriscaping components in most landscaping solutions.
