Water-wise front yards designed to fit Craftsman bungalows and historic homes, from a landscaper based right here in Orange.
Old Towne's Craftsman bungalows, with their deep porches, stone piers and wood siding, deserve more than a patch of thirsty grass or a yard full of plain gravel. We design gardens that feel like they've always belonged with the house: soft sages and lavender along the walk, deer grass and native perennials, a flagstone path to the porch, and boulders and a dry river rock bed to tie it together.
Your yard stays full and green-looking all year, uses a fraction of the water, and needs far less upkeep than a lawn. From the Plaza to the Chapman University community area, we're the local team for Old Towne's older homes.
Plant palettes, paths and materials picked to complement Craftsman and period homes.
Many Old Towne lots have big established trees. We plan around their roots and shade.
For new walls, fences or hardscape, check with the City of Orange first. We'll plan with you.
Every lawn conversion is planned to meet turf rebate rules from day one.
Orange homeowners can get a rebate for every square foot of lawn they replace with a water-wise garden. The catch is that the rules are strict, and you usually need approval before any grass comes out.
We check your eligibility and the current rebate amount, help with the application, and design with the program rules in mind.
How rebate consulting worksYes. A well-designed water-wise yard can suit a Craftsman bungalow beautifully. If your project includes new hardscape, walls or fences in the historic district, check with the City of Orange first, and we'll design with that in mind.
Most Orange homeowners with a living lawn can qualify, as long as the project meets the program rules and is approved before the grass is removed. We check eligibility and the current rebate amount for your address.
No. We use sages, lavender, deer grass, native perennials and boulders for a soft, full, natural look that fits older neighborhoods, not just rock and cactus.
