What does it mean to xeriscape?
In simple terms: the grouping of plants with similar water requirements. In Tucson it’s preferable that you’re using low water requiring vegetations. The xeriscape can then be broken into three zones – oasis, transition, and arid. The oasis will be a small area around your home where you’ll plant the highest water use vegetation. You’ll keep the area small yet functional and may want lush green plants, shade and color in the oasis. This will be your outdoor living space.
