Summary

Description

Water-smart features: Drought-tolerant, succulent plants, and native trees create this desert oasis landscape that needs minimal supplemental watering. Swales filled with local rocks help collect water, increasing infiltration and reducing runoff. Native trees produce shade, reducing evaporative water loss. Plants used: Agave macroacantha, Hedgehog cactus, Palo brea, Penstemon superbus, Verbena
