Drought-tolerant garden

Beautiful with barely any watering.

Drought-tolerant garden example

A drought-tolerant (xeriscape) garden is built for hot, dry summers: deep-rooted plants, gravel mulch and smart grouping by water need. Once established it needs little or no irrigation — kind to your bill and the climate.

Key features

Every Drought-tolerant garden is built from a few signature elements. These are the details that define the look, and exactly what you drag onto your own 2D plan in LushAI, then render photorealistically.

  • Deep-rooted, drought-tolerant species
  • Gravel or bark mulch to lock in moisture
  • Plants grouped by water need (hydrozoning)
  • Smaller lawn, more planting and permeable surfaces

Colour palette

Silvers, greens and warm gravel tones.

Materials

Gravel, permeable paving and weathered stone.
