Agua Dulce Nursery has been providing plant care and landscaping services since it opened for business in 2009. In addition to providing yard maintenance, plant and tree installation, and spring and fall cleanup services, Agua Dulce Nursery is a specialist in xeriscaping.

Xeriscaping is frequently used for landscaping projects in order to conserve water in areas that do not always have easy access to a water supply. This type of desert landscaping is designed to reduce water consumption while improving the looks of yards for homes and businesses.

Sometimes xeriscaping is confused with zero-scaping. The landscape for the latter type of outside design features mainly concrete surfaces with the addition of plants used to provide color. Xeriscape plants, on the other hand, are chosen for the sole purpose of saving water. 

One of the primary plants used in xeriscape designs is the cactus, and mulches that absorb and hold water are used, as well. For these reasons, xeriscaping is well recognized in a desert-like climate, such as that of southern California and states in the Southwest.
