Top 5 Reasons SoCal Loves Xeriscape

XeriScape, or Desertscape, is becoming one of the most popular landscaping options in Southern California, and it is easy to see why! From the striking elegance that Dryscaping offers, to how much it can save in water and maintenance costs, XeriScape can transform any property.

There are tons of reasons why Rosamond, Antelope Valley and Santa Clarita residents are choosing XeriScape for their properties. Here are five major reasons why desert landscaping is quickly gaining popularity:

     1.Curb Appeal
Desert landscapes are a great way to increase the curb appeal of your home. Striking, eye catching, and unique, desertscapes allow you to easily give your yard a breathtaking sense of style.

XeriScape allows for a lot of design creativity. Some choose to go with plant-free rockscaping for their whole yard, while others incorporate native plant life into their yard’s design. You can even choose a hybrid design, using desert landscaping as an accent to lush, green artificial turf. No matter what you choose, it’s easy to capture your unique style with a dryscape terrain.

JNR Home Improvements is committed to designing your perfect landscape. When you come to us, we will help you to design a drought tolerant landscape that includes everything you could ask for.

     2. Water Efficiency
When you live in the Antelope Valley or in Santa Clarita, you know the importance of saving water. Many communities in our area have tight water restrictions, often limiting watering to only twice a week. Taking care of a grass lawn is increasingly hard with these restrictions in place, but drought tolerant landscaping will thrive in these conditions and cut down on water usage at the same time.

Compared to more traditional landscapes, XeriScape is incredibly water efficient. Drought tolerant plants and shrubs require far less water than a grass lawn or a flower bed.

Utilizing a drip irrigation system will keep your yard well maintained without the need of a standard sprinkler system. Grass lawns require tens of thousands of gallons of water each year to stay beautiful. Desertscaping requires only a small fraction of this amount.

     3. Environmentally Friendly
Through incorporating native plant species, or even no plants at all, desert landscaping is one of the most environmentally friendly options that homeowners can choose. By conserving water, Xeriscape landscapes help keep more needed water in our ecosystem, rather than wasting it on grass turf.

Additionally, Desertscaping helps to promote the local ecology. Many of the most popular drought tolerant plants are native to Southern California. By incorporating these native plants into your yard, you will help to cut down on invasive species, while also creating a beautiful landscape that you can be proud of.

     4. Low Maintenance
If you have a busy life of work and taking care of a family, there’s not much time left to maintain a grass lawn. You can choose to hire someone else to handle the yard work for you, but that costs money that could be saved for something else.

Switching from a traditional landscape to a desertscape cuts out the need for constant maintenance and upkeep. Whether you choose to incorporate drought tolerant plants into your landscape, or if you choose a plant-free rockscape, your yard will stay beautiful without the constant need for mowing and watering.

If you dream of a yard that you can be proud of without all of the extra work to maintain it, desert landscaping might be the best option for you.

     5. Low Cost
After the initial cost of installation, XeriScape is massively cost effective. Since you are using less water and time to maintain it, you are able to keep more money in your pocket each month.

Even installation is affordable with JNR Home Improvements. We offer plenty of financing options aimed at getting you the landscape you want at a price that you can afford. Many of our payment options cost less than what would be spent on water bills and maintenance. In almost no time at all, a desert landscape will start paying for itself.  

With so many reasons to choose XeriScape, it’s no wonder that so many people have already moved away from traditional lawns! A dryscape can boost your home’s curb appeal while also saving you time and money for years to come. There are endless possibilities when it comes to drought tolerant landscaping, and JNR Home Improvements is ready to help you achieve the landscape of your dreams!
