Qualifying plants are generally water-wise, climate-appropriate plants that provide long-term coverage and require significantly less water than traditional turf. Common examples include:

▪ Blue Fescue    ▪ Russian Sage      ▪ Catmint     ▪ Lavender   ▪ Desert Four OÇlock 

▪ Penstemon     ▪ Juniper varieties     ▪ Rabbitbrush     ▪ Serviceberry      ▪ Mugo Pine

Traditional grass landscapes often require ongoing expenses for:

❏ Water    ❏ Fertilizer    ❏ Weed control    ❏Aeration    ❏ Mowing   ❏ Etc..

While xeriscaping typically has a higher upfront installation cost, it can significantly reduce long-term maintenance and water expenses. Over a 10-year period, many homeowners find that xeriscaping costs less to maintain while providing a cleaner, lower-maintenance landscape. 

A properly designed xeriscape can reduce outdoor water usage by 50–75% compared to traditional lawns. Since outdoor irrigation is often the largest source of residential water consumption, converting even a portion of your lawn can lead to substantial water savings and lower utility bills.

Landscape fabric is not a permanent weed barrier. Its main purpose is separating rock from soil. Weeds can still grow from seeds that land on top of the rock. Proper preparation and sufficient rock depth are usually more important than fabric
