Xeriscaping and Utah Water-Wise Landscaping

Water-wise does not mean a yard full of rock. We design Utah xeriscapes that are colorful, layered and intentional — landscapes that use far less water and still look lush.

1

Lush, not barren

The trick to a good xeriscape is layering: ornamental grasses for movement, perennials for long bloom seasons, evergreens for winter structure, and rock or mulch as a backdrop rather than the whole design.

2

Keep the lawn you actually use

Most homeowners do not need to remove every square foot of grass. We keep a usable lawn where it matters and convert the rest into planted, water-wise areas.

3

Irrigation that matches the plants

A water-wise landscape only saves water if the irrigation matches it. We separate zones, add drip where it belongs, and set coverage so nothing is watered more than it needs.

FAQ

Questions about xeriscaping & water-wise landscaping

Does xeriscaping have to look like rock and gravel?

No. A well-designed Utah xeriscape uses colorful drought-tolerant plants, grasses and pathways, with rock and mulch as accents rather than the main feature.

Is a water-wise landscape lower maintenance?

Generally yes. Less mowing and less watering, though beds still benefit from seasonal cleanups and weed control.
