Benefits of Xeriscaping
Xeriscaping your yard can lessen your home’s dependance on natural resources and lower monthly maintenance costs. We can help you create a personalized, eco-friendly design that meets your needs.
Here are some additional benefits that come with xeriscape landscaping:
- Low maintenance design options: Xeriscaping is created to last. We choose drought- and weather-resistant plants that grow and thrive without excess weeding, pruning, or care.
- Energy-efficient landscaping: One of the many advantages of xeriscaping is a substantial reduction in watering requirements. In many cases, xeriscape landscaping only needs the water that occurs naturally through rainfall, eliminating extensive irrigation or manual watering.
- Long-lasting installations: We will make recommendations for plants, flowers, and foliage that will flourish in Canada’s extreme temperatures. We’ll also design and install sturdy hardscaping — like retaining walls and stonework — using expert craftsmanship for an outdoor space you can enjoy for years to come.
- Increased biodiversity: While some think xeriscaping is a form of monoculture, it couldn’t be further from the truth. Xeriscaping encourages biodiversity by incorporating an array of native vegetation into your yard’s design. A xeriscape front lawn also welcomes pollinators like birds, butterflies, and honey bees to your property, along with other beneficial bugs that help maintain a healthy environment.

The team from Grounds Guys did an amazing job. They were courteous and cleaned up everything after they finished. They even came back the nex morning to seed around the posts and any area that the lawn got damaged. I will definitely recommend and use them for any future projects.

Hans K.5/5 -
Great service from The Grounds Guys Barrie. The crew was at our home for four days cleaning beds, edging, moving perennials, reshaping our gardens and finally laying a ton of mulch. Jaclyn and Hailey did most of the work the first couple of days with great care and attention to detail, they worked so diligently to get everything completed to our liking. Very pleasant and knowledgeable, I loved their energy!! The rest of the crew came in the last couple of days for the remainder of cleaning and mulching, I can’t say enough about how pleasant and hard working everyone was. Thank you, you have been the best gardeners we have hired and I am very happy with the end results.
