What does sustainable landscaping mean?

“An attractive environment that is in balance with the local climate and requires minimal resource inputs, such as fertilizer, pesticides and water” – is how Coloroado State Univ puts it – and I think puts it well!

Arcadia Studio Landscape Architecture in Santa Barbara, just blogged about how UC Verde can help you save substantial money on your irrigation costs and be a sustainable landscaping option!

“For example, a 1/3 acre yard in Santa Barbara County typically spends between $800 and $1500 per year for irrigation, potentially more in places where water is particularly expensive, like Solvang and Montecito. A LEAF landscape design can help you save 50% to 75%. on your water bill, and cut maintenance requirements in half.” – Arcadia Studio
