From Turf to Xeric
See ya later, turf! ππ»
For this xeric project in Castle Pines, we got the tiller out (a favorite tool of ours!), amended the soil, added some rocks, and are implementing native plants! Final photos and footage coming soon.
πΎ Whatβs a native plant?
A native plant is one that has evolved and adapted to a specific ecosystem over time, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature and supporting local ecosystems.
πͺ» Why native plants?
Native plants offer numerous benefits, including:
π¦ supporting local wildlife and pollinators
π¦ conserving water due to their adaptation to the local climate
π¦ reducing the need for pesticides and fertilizers
πΏ enhancing soil health
β¨οΈ preventing erosion
πΎ maintaining the natural balance of ecosystems while contributing to biodiversity and resilience against invasive species
Interested in creating a native plant / pollinator haven in your yard? Get in touch! Weβd LOVE for you to save money in water bills and provide food for the pollinators in your neighborhood.
