About Boise Xeriscape
Boise is one of the most beautiful places in the American West — and one of the thirstiest. As the Treasure Valley continues to grow, water demand grows with it, putting real pressure on the region's water resources. At Xeriscape Boise, we believe the answer starts in your yard.
We are a full-service xeriscape landscaping company serving homeowners, businesses, and communities throughout Boise and the surrounding area. Our mission is simple: to replace water-hungry, high-maintenance landscapes with beautiful, drought-tolerant landscaping that thrives in Idaho's high desert climate — and keeps your water bills in check for years to come.
Here is a sobering fact that drives everything we do: outdoor water use can account for as much as 60 percent of total household water use in arid regions. In a semi-arid city like Boise, that means a significant portion of your water bill may be going straight into your lawn. Xeriscape Boise exists to change that.
What We Do
Drought-Tolerant Landscaping is at the heart of our work. We design and install waterwise landscapes using low-water plants, xeriscape shrubs, and water-wise plants that are naturally suited to Boise's climate. The result is a yard that stays green and vibrant without the constant irrigation demands of traditional turf.
Our Front & Backyard Design Ideas service is for homeowners who want a landscape that truly reflects their style. Whether you are drawn to modern desert backyard aesthetics, a lush xeric garden filled with native plants, or a simple desert landscape that is easy to maintain, our design team builds a custom plan around your vision, your budget, and your space.
Through our Xeric Garden & Native Plant Installation service, we bring the natural beauty of Idaho's high desert directly to your property. Our horticulture team carefully selects xeriscape plants, xeriscape grasses, and drought-resistant shrubs that are proven performers in our region, then installs them with precision to ensure long-term health and visual impact.
We are also proud to serve Commercial & HOA Xeriscaping clients throughout the Boise area. Water costs represent one of the largest controllable operating expenses for commercial properties and homeowners associations. Our commercial xeriscape design and installation service reduces irrigation demand, lowers ongoing maintenance costs, and delivers a polished, professional landscape that elevates any property.
Our full-service Landscaping Design & Installation process takes you from concept to completion under one roof. We handle site assessment, custom xeriscape garden design, plant selection, grading, hardscape, irrigation conversion, and final installation — with a single point of contact from start to finish. No surprises, no handoffs, no confusion.
For clients who want expert guidance without a full installation commitment, our Horticulture & Plant Selection Consulting service offers one-on-one advice on how to xeriscape your yard, which water-wise plants and waterwise shrubs work best for your specific conditions, and how to approach a DIY xeriscape project with confidence. Our consultants bring deep, practical knowledge of xeric landscaping in Boise's unique growing environment.
Water Rebates & Incentives in Boise
Going water-wise is not just good for the environment — it can also put money back in your pocket. Several utility providers in the Treasure Valley offer rebates and conservation incentives for homeowners who convert high-water-use turf to xeriscape landscapes or upgrade to efficient drip irrigation systems. Our team stays current on available programs and helps clients identify which incentives may apply before a project begins.
Why It Matters
Idaho uses more domestic water per capita than any other state, and a significant driver of that consumption is outdoor landscape irrigation. At Xeriscape Boise, we take that seriously. Every xeriscape garden we install, every waterwise landscape we design, and every drought tolerant plant we put in the ground is a small step toward a more sustainable Boise.
We are proud to serve this community — and proud to help it use water more wisely.
