Project Name: Cook Xeriscaping

Type: Xeriscape

Location: Loveland, Colorado

About This Project

This front yard xeriscaping project was completed for a homeowner seeking a low-maintenance, water-efficient alternative to turf. Rolling Green Landscaping partnered with Helios Landscape Design to develop a detailed site plan, which included plant placement, boulder layout, and irrigation adjustments. This project involved:

  • Removal of existing turf and debris

  • Placement of large landscape boulders (hand-selected for scale and fit)

  • Installation of mulch, decorative rock, and planters mix

  • Planting of drought-tolerant species based on the designer’s specifications

  • Retrofitting the existing irrigation system with a drip configuration to efficiently water the new plantings

The end result is a clean, sustainable landscape requiring minimal maintenance—typically just a spring or fall cleanup once per year.
