Xeriscape Landscaping

Xeriscape refers to landscaping with reduced, efficient irrigation. The keys to successful xeriscape include proper plant selection, good mulching and efficient irrigation.

We are available to:

  • Speak to groups on various horticultural topics
  • Are open to the public for information on home and landscape gardening, including plant selection; pest and disease identification; vegetable and fruit production; and more
  • We also encourage the greens industry to use us for accurate problem diagnosis and control recommendations
