DFW summers can be relentless. Drought-tolerant landscaping is about designing with plants and materials that stay attractive when water is limited and heat is high.

Strategies that work

• Choose native/adapted plants with proven heat tolerance
• Group plants by water needs (hydrozones)
• Use drip irrigation and smart scheduling
• Improve soil and apply mulch to reduce evaporation
• Limit thirsty turf areas and emphasize beds/hardscape
