Rock Garden Xeriscaping
Rock gardens and xeriscaping are often thought of as in the same design sense. Mention xeriscaping and most folks will picture something like the image above. For those that don't know, xeriscaping is water wise landscaping. The word itself meaning "dry scene". "Xeri" meaning dry and "scape" meaning scene.
While this picture is a good example of a dry scene landscape, it is on the extreme side of what a xeric garden can be. See Xeriscaping Principles and Xeriscape Design Ideas for more information on drought tollerant and water wise landscaping.
