We did a lot of the same things at our home and not only are we saving on water, our landscaping maint. costs have gone way down as well and we are using our outdoor spaces much more these days. I admit it was my wife’s idea and she had to convince me to do it as I was envisioning a dry and dismal look – especially to the front of the house but by also adding some rock work it actually came out looking much more interesting than just a lot of green lawn and standard shrubs and flower beds like all the homes in the area.
