Native Desert Scape

A full front-yard conversion from turf to a drought-tolerant desert scape. We pulled the old lawn, graded the yard, and built a dry creek bed of river rock winding through decomposed granite groundcover, anchored by large natural boulders. Agave, lavender, and a mix of low-water native and Mediterranean plants were worked in around the stonework for year-round texture and color.

The dry creek bed isn't just decorative — it also helps direct rainwater runoff across the yard instead of letting it pool or erode the DG.
