Xeriscape is a method of landscaping that promotes water conservation. The concept of Xeriscape is based upon seven principles:
Planning and Design
Soil Improvements
Efficient Irrigation
Zoning of Plants
Mulches
Turf Alternatives
Appropriate Maintenance
The word “Xeriscape” was coined by the Denver Water Department in 1981 to help make water conserving landscaping an easily recognized concept. The word is a combination of “landscape” and the Greek word “xeros” which means “dry”.
Terrain Incorporated has been involved in designing and installing Xeriscape for over 15 years. Terrain is pleased to offer a free initial consultation with one of our professionals to discuss a xeriscape solution for your landscaping needs.
