What Is Xeriscaping — and Why Does It Matter in Fort Collins?

We design xeriscape backyard ideas for Thornton properties ranging from small updates to full renovations. For homeowners focused on curb appeal, we often recommend xeriscape landscaping ideas for front yard spaces that combine native grasses, flowering perennials, and gravel pathways to create a polished, low-maintenance look that stands apart from standard suburban landscaping.

Native plant landscaping is central to what makes a Thornton xeriscape successful long-term. We select native shrubs, native grasses, and wildflowers suited to the specific soil and sun conditions found throughout this part of the northern Denver metro.

Satisfied Clients

After years of fighting to keep a green lawn alive in this dry climate, we finally called Fort Collins Xeriscape to redo our front yard. They walked us through native shortgrass prairie plants and buffalo grass options that actually make sense for our water restrictions and elevation. The install crew finished in just a couple of days, and going into our second summer with it, the yard looks better than our old lawn ever did with a fraction of the water. Wish we'd made the switch years ago.

We hired Fort Collins Xeriscape to handle our backyard after getting tired of the time and water it took to maintain traditional grass at this altitude. They were straightforward about costs and timeline from the first meeting, and the native and foothills plantings they chose have held up beautifully through a full winter and a hot, dry summer since. Barely any maintenance needed on our end. Already recommended them to two neighbors.
