What We Offer

Six Disciplines.
One Resilient Garden.

Every service begins with a soil analysis and a water budget. We design to the land, not against it.

Service I

Xeriscape Design

A complete landscape redesign built around drought resilience — from initial soil analysis through full planting plan delivery and installation management.

Every xeriscape project begins with a laboratory soil test identifying pH, organic matter content, texture, and drainage characteristics. Plant selection follows directly from this analysis, not from catalogue preferences. We produce a formal planting plan with species list, spacing specifications, mulch depth requirements, and a phased implementation schedule calibrated to your budget.

Included in Every Xeriscape Project

  • ❧Laboratory soil analysis with written results and amendment recommendations
  • ❧Full planting plan with species list, water budget projection, and site map
  • ❧Hardscape specification for paths, borders, and drainage features
  • ❧Irrigation design integrated with planting plan
  • ❧Two post-installation establishment visits in year one
Service II

Native Plant Installation

Curated planting programmes using Texas natives and adapted species — selected for your specific soil type, sun exposure, and water budget.

Texas natives evolved over thousands of years for exactly the conditions your Central Texas property presents: summer drought, caliche soils, bimodal rainfall, and extremes from 28°F winters to 108°F summers. They don't need to be coaxed through conditions they weren't built for. We source plants from nurseries growing regionally appropriate ecotypes, not generic cultivars developed for different climates.

Our Native Plant Services Include

  • ❧Species selection calibrated to your specific site microclimate
  • ❧Sourcing from regional nurseries with Central Texas ecotypes
  • ❧October-priority installation scheduling for best establishment
  • ❧Written establishment care guide for each species installed
  • ❧90-day establishment monitoring programme

Service III

Rain Harvesting Systems

Properly engineered cistern systems designed to bridge Austin's summer drought — sized to your roof catchment area and garden water demand.

Marcus Okonkwo, our irrigation engineer, designs every rain harvesting system from first principles: roof catchment area calculation, first-flush diverter sizing, tank placement for gravity-fed or pump-assisted distribution, overflow routing to drainage structures, and integration with your existing drip or sprinkler system. Texas law fully permits residential rain harvesting; we handle the complete installation including any Austin Water rebate documentation.

Rain Harvesting System Includes

  • ❧Roof catchment analysis and cistern sizing calculation
  • ❧First-flush diverter installation on all roof catchment downspouts
  • ❧Mosquito screening and overflow routing for all tank openings
  • ❧Integration with existing drip or irrigation system
  • ❧Austin Water rebate documentation assistance
Additional Services

Drip, Soil & Maintenance

IV

Drip Irrigation

Precision drip systems delivering water directly to root zones — eliminating evaporation loss and runoff. Includes controller programming, rain sensor installation, and zone-by-zone flow testing.

V

Soil Health

Laboratory soil testing, compost amendment planning, and caliche remediation. Austin's notorious caliche layers require specific strategies — we identify depth, extent, and the most cost-effective remediation for your situation.

VI

Seasonal Maintenance

Structured seasonal programmes: spring cutback and mulching, summer monitoring and irrigation adjustment, fall planting and fertilisation, winter preparation. Written condition report included with each visit.
