Common questions.

How much does drought-tolerant landscaping cost?

Every project is scoped individually. We provide a free detailed written quote after visiting your property. Most installs qualify for water district rebates.

Will it look brown and dead?

No. A well-designed California native landscape has year-round color and texture. Drought-tolerant plants are bred for this climate.

How long to look established?

Most plants reach mature appearance within 12-18 months. By year three, most natives need almost no water beyond winter rainfall.

Do you do front yards specifically?

Yes - drought-tolerant front yards are our most-requested service. We design to meet HOA guidelines while maximizing curb appeal and rebate eligibility.

What is included in a typical project?

Lawn removal, soil regrading, drip irrigation installation, drought-tolerant planting in natural groupings, and 2-3 inches of bark mulch or decomposed granite.
