Because of Utah’s extremely hot and dry summer climate, xeriscaping is the ideal way to maintain landscaping beauty, conserve water, and save money, all at the same time. Xeriscaping and Hardscaping is an approach to water conservation that is only limited by your imagination and it can also include mulch, stone and concrete features as well as water-wise plants and small patches of live grass. Think about what you want in your landscaping and how to adapt that to Utah’s desert environment.
With the persistently recurring drought conditions in Utah, xeriscaping is a wise decision for many homeowners in the Greater Salt Lake City area. Rico’s Landscaping, LLC can help you make the bridge to a water-efficient landscape design. We will meet with you to determine what your goals are with xeriscaping. After knowing what you want and need, we’ll look at your land and create the perfect xeriscape design for you.
Here’s what you can plan on with your new xeriscape installation:
Mulch is organic material that is placed over soil. Mulch is frequently used in landscape design because it has many qualities that protect the soil while providing an enhancing design element to a landscape. Spreading mulch or mulching provides the following benefits to your landscape:
Moderates soil temperature on hot sunny days; Retains moisture during dry weather decreasing the need for watering; Inhibits the germination of seeds from most weeds; Reduces the need for the use of herbicides; Inhibits soil runoff during rain storms; Lessens the need for constantly cultivating bed lines; Keeps the soil in a loam state which allows your plants and bushes to flourish.
