7 Xeriscaping Ideas For Your Home – Save Money While Saving The Planet

What if I told you that you could save money and help the planet by changing up the landscaping of your backyard or front lawn?

Xeriscape landscaping is an eco-friendly gardening technique that uses minimal water and native drought-resistant plants to survive.

Basics Of Xeriscaping

1

Planning And Design

Group like-minded plants together and give them their favorite combination of sun and water – no more wasted H2O or withering flowers!

2

Soil Improvements

Testing the nutrient levels is key — if needed, pamper it with compost or organic fertilizer and ensure each plant in your landscape gets just what  they need!

3

Efficient Irrigation

Rather than wasting precious water with traditional sprinklers, xeriscapes use cleverly efficient drip irrigation or soaker hoses to get the hydration right where it matters.

4

Limiting Turf Use

Kids and pets need a place to run around, so why not keep an area of Kentucky bluegrass in your yard while opting for lower-water grasses or native plants in other sections?

5

Mulching

Get your lawn summer-ready and winterproofed with the miraculous power of mulch!
