Xeriscaping is a type of landscaping that is designed to reduce or eliminate the need for irrigation, thus conserving water.
The term ‘xeri-‘ comes from the Greek word ‘xeros’, meaning dry. Xeriscaping utilizes drought-tolerant plants, efficient irrigation methods, and careful planning to minimize water usage in landscapes.
