Xeriscape Landscaping in Seattle

Xeriscape landscaping is a water-efficient gardening method that’s perfect for regions with varying rainfall, like Seattle. This approach reduces the need for irrigation while promoting sustainable gardening practices. With Seattle’s unpredictable weather patterns, xeriscaping can help homeowners conserve water, lower maintenance costs, and enhance their property’s curb appeal.


Our Approach

At Neat & Tidy, we specialize in creating xeriscape gardens that thrive in Seattle’s climate. Our approach includes:

  • Soil Assessment: We start by evaluating your soil type and drainage capabilities. This helps us determine the best plants and materials for your yard.

  • Plant Selection: We choose native and drought-resistant plants to ensure your garden remains vibrant with minimal water. Varieties like ferns, sedums, and ornamental grasses are excellent choices.

  • Design Planning: Our team collaborates with you to create a layout that maximizes visual interest while minimizing water usage. We consider sun exposure, plant heights, and seasonal colors.

  • Installation: We handle the entire installation process, from preparing the soil to planting and mulching. Our goal is to create a beautiful, functional garden that requires less maintenance.

We’re a low-maintenance landscaping crew. Our goal is fewer problems between visits and less work for you.


Service Cadences

To keep your xeriscape garden thriving, we offer flexible service options:

  • Quarterly: Includes spring and fall deep cleanings, along with two tune-ups to adjust plant care as needed.
  • Bi-Monthly: Perfect for most yards, ensuring balanced care and timely adjustments to your garden.
  • Monthly: Ideal for high-visibility properties and rentals, ensuring your landscape always looks its best.

What’s Included

Each service package includes:

  • Weed Management: Regular weeding to prevent competition for nutrients and water.
  • Pruning & Trimming: Careful pruning of plants to promote healthy growth and maintain aesthetics.
  • Mulching: Application of organic mulch to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
  • Soil Health Monitoring: Regular checks on soil conditions to ensure optimal plant health.
  • Seasonal Planting Advice: Recommendations for seasonal plant care and potential additions to enhance your landscape.

Why It Matters

Xeriscaping offers several benefits that make it a smart choice for Seattle homeowners:

  • Water Conservation: Reduces the need for irrigation, saving you money on water bills and helping the environment.
  • Lower Maintenance: Native plants require less care, meaning you spend less time on yard work and more time enjoying your outdoor space.
  • Enhanced Curb Appeal: A well-designed xeriscape garden can significantly boost your home’s visual appeal, making it more attractive to visitors and potential buyers.
  • HOA Compliance: Many homeowners associations value sustainable practices. A xeriscape garden can help you meet HOA guidelines and avoid penalties.

How It Works

Getting started with xeriscaping is easy:

  1. Quick Estimate: We can provide a clear, upfront price through a photo/video assessment or an onsite visit.
  2. Set Your Schedule: Choose a maintenance schedule that fits your needs—quarterly, bi-monthly, or monthly.
  3. Service Day: Our team will arrive to clear, prune, and edge your garden. We also offer optional mulch or gravel refresh services.
