Project Summary
XERISCAPE PLAN
Save resources and time and money on an existing backyard border garden with low water use drip irrigation, xeric plants to fill in gaps in existing garden, replace a few decorative grasses, introduce a naturalized fruit tree or two, and refresh an existing small raised bed veggie garden box.
Replace mulch (blown by wind) along both sides of house with with cobble and weed mat (similar to neighbors side-yard cobble for continuity).
Match existing concrete square step pavers to double existing width of walkway for smooth (low noise) carry-out to/from compost bins and drive.

FOR HOMEOWNERS, NEIGHBORHOODS, AND COMMUNITY GARDENS
PLAN A
HEALTHY LOW MAINTENANCE ECO SYSTEM
Site Smart Planting
We select native and naturalized plants and plant communities to establish a healthy micro climate, build seasonal immunity, reduce water usage and maintenance long term, and boost native pollinator and root eco systems.
SAVE WITH
SMART USE + LOW WATER SOLUTIONS
Responsible Water Use
Our designs use low water emission, capture water on site to increase moisture retention, balance dispersal for effective use, recharge groundwater, reduce flooding, or keep pollutants out of local waterways.
SOURCE LOCALLY
NURSERIES, GROWERS, MATERIAL SUPPLY
Locally Sourced community led
We recommend sourcing your plants and materials through local organizations and businesses to support community business and resources, reduce carbon footprint and keep your economy and ecology strong.

RE - INTRODUCING
BIODIVERISTY + POLLINATORS
restoring micro systems + Habitat
We promote native and keystone plants to support biodiversity, strengthen ecosystem resilience, create the conditions for life’s living networks to thrive, and sustain neighborhood wildlife routes or wildflower corridors.
BALANCING
GROUNDCOVER TO OVERSTORY
Proactive layers risk prevention
Our designs layer select canopy, understory or mid level shrubery, seasonal blooms, and select ground cover to create a living ecosystem that can help restore elemental balance, offset home energy consumption, and mitigate risk of wildfire or drought.
SOURCING
NATURAL + SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS
Sustainably Grown
We recommend outdoor [FSC-approved] wood to support sustainable forest management practices, recycled plastics that keep our oceans clean, and quality products to decrease consumption or waste
