Xeriscaping:
In
the arid southwest, water conservation is beginning
to play a huge role in landscape design. Bill’s
Landscaping Inc. is a leader in the Antelope Valley
for drought tolerant landscaping and the winner of
the Xeriscape Award from the CLCA (CA Landscape
Contractors Association) High Desert Chapter.
The concept of "Xeriscape" was introduced in Denver,
Colorado, in response to water shortages. Xeriscape
refers to a landscape that uses little supplemental
water. It does not refer to a dry, barren
landscape. Xeriscapes can be full of color,
fragrance, be attractive to birds and butterflies,
be easy to maintain, and most of all… use less
water.
Benefits
Save Water - Xeriscape can reduce landscape water use by 50 - 75% over
having a “lawn only” landscape.
Less
Maintenance - Aside from occasional pruning and weeding, maintenance is
minimal and watering requirements are low.
No Fertilizers
or Pesticides -. Using plants native to your area will eliminate
the need for
chemical supplements.
Improves Property
Value - A good Xeriscape can raise property values which more than offset
the cost of installation. Protect your landscaping
investment by drought-proofing it.
Pollution Free - Fossil fuel consumption from gas mowers is minimized or
eliminated with minimal turf areas.
Provides
Wildlife Habitat - Use of native plants, shrubs and trees offer a familiar and
varied habitat for local wildlife.
We
use the highest quality materials and plants
available. A wide variety of possibilities exist
when planning your hardscape and softscape areas.
We understand the differences in materials, plants,
soils and site conditions, and will help you
understand the relationship each of these items will
have on the longevity and performance of your new
project.
