One of the best ways to conserve with your new custom home in Las Cruces is to use xeriscape landscaping. At Stearns Custom Homes we offer expertise in xeriscape landscaping and have the materials readily available. From a water conserving perspective, Xeriscape landscapes are very valuable. Additionally, Xeriscape landscapes can be designed to aid in energy conservation and reduce the need for chemical and fertilizer use. Efficient irrigation is perhaps one of the easiest principles to achieve, but has much to do with the water user's habits and system design. Don't believe that Xeriscape landscapes can initially cost more than conventional landscapes. Due to the comprehensive nature of Xeriscape design and replacement of inexpensive turf with other plants, it is commonly believed that it costs more initially. A Xeriscape landscape can be phased in by the owners of a new home after the builder has initiated some early stages, and thereby minimize the cost impact. Buffalograss may cost more than other turf grasses but the cost is becoming more competitive. Xeriscape will decrease the life cycle maintenance costs of landscaping.
