Water-wise landscapes that look great through Texas drought and watering limits.
Xeriscaping in New Braunfels means creating a landscape that stays lush and green through our hot summers and the watering restrictions that come with them. Between the Guadalupe and Blanco rivers and the rocky Hill Country edge, New Braunfels has unique soil and drainage challenges that make smart water-wise design not just a luxury but a practical necessity. Native and drought-tolerant plants thrive in this terrain when they're placed right.
Corral Bros has spent years learning how the riverfront sand in Gruene, the rocky soils around Vintage Oaks, and the Hill Country acreage handle water and sun. We design and build xeriscapes that cut your water bills and maintenance work while looking intentional and alive. The work starts with a site visit to understand your soil, slope, and what you actually want to spend time on, and ends with a landscape that works with the Texas heat instead of against it.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your New Braunfels property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and xeriscaping that holds up to Comal County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Xeriscaping is water-wise landscaping built around drought-tolerant plants, efficient drip irrigation and reduced turf. It can dramatically cut outdoor water use, which is often the largest part of a Central Texas water bill, while staying green and attractive through drought and watering restrictions.
No. A well-designed xeriscape is lush and colorful, using Texas natives and adapted perennials like salvia, lantana, esperanza and ornamental grasses alongside rock and gravel. The goal is beauty with low water, not a bare gravel lot.
Not at all. We layer native Texas plants like esperanza, salvia, and autumn sage with rock and gravel in ways that feel rich and textured. Around Gruene and River Chase, we design xeriscapes with color, shape, and depth. The difference is your water use drops and so does mowing and constant upkeep.
Cost varies by size, soil conditions, and what you want removed or kept. We schedule free on-site estimates within 48 hours to walk your property, see the soil and slope, and give you a real number. Call us at 737-404-9343 to set one up.
Yes, and it's one of the smartest moves for New Braunfels properties. Drip lines deliver water directly to roots in rocky and sandy soils, cutting waste and runoff. We size and integrate systems to match your terrain and plant needs, so you're not watering the same amount year-round.
Absolutely. Many New Braunfels riverfront and Hill Country homes have existing trees worth preserving. We design around them, choosing shade-tolerant plants and managing soil to keep roots healthy while still cutting your water load and adding structure.
Texas sage, turk's cap, lantana, rosemary, and blackeyed Susan do well here. So do native grasses and groundcovers that stabilize rocky slopes. We pick plants bred for this climate and soil type, so they establish fast and need less babying once they're in.
