Water-wise landscapes that look great through Texas drought and watering limits.
Xeriscaping fits Spicewood almost perfectly. With well water, dry Hill Country summers, and rocky ground, a water-wise landscape is less a trend here and more common sense. Corral Bros designs and installs xeriscapes across Spicewood Trails, Briarcliff, and the lake lots using native, drought-tolerant plants, rock, gravel, and smart layout to build yards that look alive on very little water.
Thin soil over limestone actually plays to xeriscaping's strengths, since the plants we use want fast drainage and lean ground. We group by water need, add efficient drip only where it helps, and use stone to armor slopes and cut evaporation. During watering restrictions or a long dry stretch, your landscape holds. Corral Bros is family-built, licensed, and insured. Call (737) 404-9343 for a free on-site estimate, usually within 48 hours.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your Spicewood property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and xeriscaping that holds up to Burnet 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.
It varies with the size of the area and the plants and stone involved. Xeriscaping often costs less to run over time because it saves water, which matters on a Spicewood well. Corral Bros gives free on-site estimates so you get real numbers up front. Call (737) 404-9343.
Not the way we design it. A good Spicewood xeriscape layers native grasses, flowering perennials, shrubs, and stone for real texture and seasonal color. It looks intentional and full, just built to thrive on little water. Done right, most people cannot tell it is low-water at a glance.
Yes, surprisingly so. The thin, rocky, fast-draining soil over limestone is exactly what many drought-tolerant natives prefer. Where richer soil would rot their roots, Spicewood ground suits them. We work with that instead of hauling in loads of amended soil the plants do not want.
That is the point. Once established, a xeriscape gets by on minimal water, so watering restrictions or a low well barely affect it. We choose plants and layouts that hold through a Hill Country drought, so your landscape stays green when thirstier lawns brown out.
Yes. We can phase out thirsty turf and replace it with drought-tolerant beds, native grasses, and stone. Plenty of Spicewood homeowners do this to cut their well use and mowing. We plan the conversion so it looks finished at each stage, not like a torn-up yard.
