Commercial Landscape Maintenance adds Color

With Bay Area drought conditions, many of today's  landscapes are being designed for beauty, energy efficiency and colorful in appearance. They are engineered to lower maintenance costs, conserve resources, and reduce the heat island effect on properties.

Drought Resistant Landscaping Can Be Fun

Bay area landscaping includes Drought resistant native plants and succulents that help conserve water that don’t require weekly lawn mowing and are aesthetically pleasing for apartment communities and commercial property landscaping. Their is one landscape maintenance contractor that has become creative in design using a wide range of textures, flora, and interesting growth characteristic’s. By reserving water in their foliage, they retain a high percentage of moisture without much water for extended periods of time; this new modern design provides a natural fire resistant landscape used to enhance the safety and beauty of residential community developments, office buildings and retail shopping centers, helping to protect properties from fire and flood. Another wonderful characteristic is most of them grow slowly and require minimal maintenance care.

Water Efficient Landscaping Improves Sustainability

Water efficient landscaping doesn t have to look like cactus, drought-tolerant plants are also excellent choices for properties looking to go-green and to improve their sustainability. Once the plants are acclimated to their new growing environment, "Green Landscaping" requires minimal watering with root systems that extend deep into the soil for water. This drought tolerant characteristic makes them excellent choices for soil stabilization and erosion control on slopes, hillsides and bio-swales, erosion being a common problem following fires during the rainy season.

Planting fire-resistant and drought-tolerant plants is the modern solution for a low landscape maintenance service. Commercial property landscaping can be creative and beautiful. Allow us to engineer your landscape for sustainability and lower water costs.
