Need custom native garden design plans in California for an HOA?
Whether you’re an HOA resident or a manager, we’re here to help.
Legislation (AB 1572) requires California HOAs to replace non-functional turf by 2029. While we serve customers all over the US (not just California), we can design a custom native garden to help you comply with AB 1572 by the deadline. This can be for a yard of a single-family home in an HOA, a common space, or both!

Our Gardens Can Change the World!
The world is facing a major water crisis – Water Efficient Gardens is helping manage that. So far, we‘ve converted over 150,000 sq ft of lawn and barren spaces to native and drought-tolerant landscaping that sustain and promote bees, birds and butterflies. These garden transformations have saved more than half a million gallons of water – and counting!
