We specialize in drought tolerant/native plants. A water wise garden is a low maintenance alternative to a lawn. You don't need to give up green space to still have 'green space'. With so many rich colors and textures to choose from, drought tolerant plants make for unique and interesting landscapes. Firescaping is something that should be implemented in design plans with properties that border in open space. San Diego wildfires have devastated areas in the past. While we can not control Mother Nature, prevention and thoughtful planting will help lessen the impact. Break down your property into zone Zone 1 (50-100 ft) use low growing plants/turf or moist plants. Zone 2 (51-100 ft) slow growers, ground cover, drought tolerant or shrubs. Zone 3 (101-150 ft) pruned, spaced native trees Zone 4 (151 ft +) Keep it well maintained, free of debris, leaves, remove low branches and clear soil. Be proactive and take stock of your property. If you decide to tackle the project yourself, do it in stages so it is not overwhelming. It is more cost effective and easier to redo your landscape then replace your valued home.

Rooftop gardens are one of the most exciting trends in the industry. The benefits include cleaner air and more usable green space. Support local organizations that adopt green roofs and encourage the growth of this earth friendly concept. It is estimated that if all roofs in major cities included landscape gardens that urban temperatures could be reduced by as much as 12 degrees. You can still do your part. If you have a small balcony or terrace. Container gardening is rewarding and easy. Even the smallest of spaces can be improved. Dwarf citrus and small maples make wonderful choices.
