Abstract/Contents:"Xeriscaping, or water-conserving landscaping, is a plan for reducing the quantity of water applied to landscape plantings. The strategies used to attain this goal can be grouped into three categories, the 3 M's: (1) Methods of designing landscapes that have reduced water requirements. (2) Materials, including plants and hardscapes, that are appropriate for use in water-conserving designs, and (3) Management techniques that can be used to maintain landscapes with reduced water applications. Water-conserving landscaping can be thought of as an improved form of landscape management. People living in well-designed, water-conserving landscapes describe them as beautiful, and are often surprised to find that the landscape requires little irrigation."
