Why Las Cruces Needs a Different Approach

Generic Southwest landscaping advice fails here. Four local conditions shape every job we do.

Caliche hardpanA cemented layer 6–18″ down that stops a shovel dead. It has to be broken through for planting and trenching, and it blocks drainage.
~10″ of rain a yearAlmost nothing survives unirrigated for the first two to three years here — including natives. Irrigation isn’t optional.
Monsoon burstsA large share of annual rainfall arrives in short, violent storms. Grading and drainage aren’t decorative in this floodplain.
Watering restrictionsApril–September the city limits watering days and hours. Systems must complete their cycle inside that window.
