Absolutely….in fact it has it’s own name. Xeriscape is the art of gardening with little to no water. It is a rapidly growing form of art in states like Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona….areas where the water is scarce. And xeriscaping doesn’t mean only rock gardening. You’d be amazed at what type of plants require little to no water.
I am working quite diligently to xeriscape my own yard. Since I don’t know exactly what part of the country you’re in, I can’t go into too much detail. Feel free to contact me for further details.
