Myth #1 about Xeriscape: “It looks like a parking lot.”

Take a look at this 👇

This is a xeriscape project, that we design and install. It looks lush, layered, and full of life. Not a sea of rock.

✔️ A diverse mix of perennials, shrubs, and ornamental grasses
✔️ Thoughtful combination of different rock sizes for texture and function
✔️ Mid-sized trees adding structure and shade
✔️ A small front lawn to maintain that classic curb appeal

Xeriscaping isn’t about removing beauty; it’s about designing with knowledge. You can have color, movement, and seasonal interest while still conserving water.

What do you think? Does this change your idea of xeriscape? 🌿

After a well‑deserved break, we’re back and fully recharged for 2026.

Our recent trip through Argentina and Chile was full of landscape, history, and inspiration. In Mendoza, Parque General San Martín, designed by French landscape architect Carlos Thays, stands as a powerful example of how landscape architecture transformed desert into a green urban system. The park and city rely on ancient acequias, still carefully maintained by city employees, giving Mendoza its clean streets, shaded avenues, and mature tree canopy.

The climate feels much like Colorado, dry and sunny, though winters are warmer. Flying into the Andes and seeing Aconcagua from above was breathtaking and unforgettable.

In Chile, we visited the coast, where massive hydrangeas thrive in the cooler climate, and spent time in Santiago de Chile, surrounded by colonial architecture dating back to the 1560s. So much history and beautiful landscape, an inspiring way to begin the year.
