Xeriscape Favorites from Nature Hills

Explore hardy and beautiful options like:

  • Desert Willow – Drought-hardy flowering tree with trumpet-shaped blooms
  • Russian Sage – Lavender-blue flowers and silver foliage that thrive in heat
  • Serviceberry – Multi-season interest and wildlife-friendly fruit
  • Texas Sage – Evergreen foliage with bursts of purple flowers
  • Agastache & Coneflowers – Pollinator magnets with bright, lasting blooms
  • Artemisia, Yarrow, and Native Grasses – Texture, fragrance, and low water needs

These choices provide a perfect balance of form, function, and resilience.

How to Grow & Care for Xeriscape Plants

These drought-smart plants require very little water once established, but they need a good start. Here’s how to care for them:

  • Plant in well-drained soil. Amend heavy soils with sand or compost
  • Choose full sun to partial shade, depending on plant needs
  • Water deeply and infrequently in the first growing season to encourage deep roots
  • Use the Finger Test to check for moisture needs
  • Add a layer of arborist mulch to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and protect roots
  • Once established, reduce watering dramatically; these plants are built to thrive in dry conditions

Many xeriscape selections also resist deer and pests, and they support native wildlife and pollinators.

Go Green—Without the Garden Hose!

Conserve water without sacrificing style! Our Xeriscape Trees, Shrubs, and Plants make it easy to create a vibrant, self-sufficient garden that thrives with minimal irrigation.
