Native and Mediterranean planting, gravel and mulch, and drip irrigation that puts water only where roots need it.


We replace thirsty lawn and struggling beds with plants that belong in a dry summer: sages, grasses, lavender, succulents and shrubs that settle in and need little once established.
Plants are grouped by how much water they need, then fed by drip lines on a simple timer. Gravel and mulch keep the soil cool and the weeds down.
Not if it is planned well. Layered planting, soft grasses and flowering shrubs keep it full and green.
Most plants settle in over the first seasons. We space them so the garden looks finished from day one.
Yes. A small lawn where the family plays is often the right balance.
Less than a lawn: a seasonal trim, mulch top-up and a check of the drip lines.
