Our Full Range of Xeriscape Services

Houston Xeriscape handles every phase of the native plant landscaping process from first conversation to finished yard. Our services begin with a thorough site assessment covering soil composition, drainage patterns, sun and shade exposure, and existing irrigation infrastructure. Houston's clay-heavy soils and variable drainage conditions require specific preparation that directly affects how well plants establish and how the landscape performs through both the wet and dry extremes this city regularly delivers.

Plant selection is central to everything we install. We source native grasses, waterwise shrubs, Texas native plant bushes, drought-tolerant perennials, and ornamental grasses proven to establish and perform in Houston's growing conditions, and we compose them into native plant gardens that deliver genuine visual interest across every season rather than looking sparse or utilitarian. Whether the scope is a simple front yard drought-tolerant landscaping refresh on a budget, a complete modern native backyard transformation, or a large-scale commercial native landscape installation, the same plant knowledge and design intention go into every project.

Soil preparation and mulching are non-negotiable on every installation we complete. Houston's clay soils restrict drainage and root penetration in ways that stress even well-adapted native plants if left unaddressed. We amend soil prior to installation and apply mulch at the correct depth to conserve soil moisture, moderate root zone temperature during summer heat events, and suppress weed growth that competes with establishing plants.

Irrigation reduction is the final component of every native landscape system we install. We assess existing irrigation infrastructure, reconfigure or replace inefficient systems with drip irrigation calibrated to the actual water requirements of the native plant palette, and eliminate the overwatering that drives up bills and stresses drought-tolerant plants that do not need that volume.
