The plants which are best suited for this landscape setup are dry and arid plants, desert plants, and plants with a thicker exterior skin, which have water in them, and do not need to be watered to survive. The best way for a homeowner or business to really know which plants to purchase would be to hire a landscaping company, to initially setup the garden for them.
The main goal is water conservation, since it is very important in the region, and will really save on the overall costs of landscaping in Las Vegas. Just the fact that these plants and trees will need very little, if any water to survive, and they will not die, due to the arid and dry climate zone in Vegas, is really a great savings on owning a landscape.
Those who install these xeriscaped yards are really going to get the great looking plants and design style they are trying to accomplish, and are going to be saving on this limited resource (water), as well as saving on overall costs of owning and maintaining the landscape to begin with. The fact that new trees won't have to be bought every six months because the old ones died, and new grass doesn't have to be installed every few months, is not only money savings, but time and effort saving features for the home or business owner choosing this landscape display.
So, choosing the right plants and design style is the next step. The plants which are going to be purchased are cacti, native plants to the Las Vegas region which are drought tolerant, perennial plants, and several other drought resistant blooms, which can survive the tough climate zone, and require no care from the home or business owner.
Additionally, when the plants are chose, the selection of either installing turf grass (which requires no water to survive), or choosing decorative rocks or rubber mulch and rocks, is going to be considered as well. You will of course make the ultimate selection, but, by hiring a landscaping company, they can give you suggestions as to what looks best, and how the overall theme is going to fit in and look, wherever you are having the landscape installed.
