Xeriscape Services for Ontario's Inland Empire Homeowners

Los Angeles Xeriscape now brings its complete range of water wise landscaping services to Ontario, CA. Located in the western Inland Empire, Ontario experiences hotter, drier conditions than much of coastal Los Angeles, which makes thoughtful xeriscape design especially valuable for local homeowners and businesses. Our team applies the same regional plant expertise here that we use throughout greater Los Angeles, adjusted for Ontario's warmer inland climate.

Drought-Tolerant Landscaping for Ontario's Dry Summers

Ontario's extended dry season puts real pressure on traditional lawns, driving water bills up while turf struggles to stay green through the hottest stretches. Our drought tolerant landscaping service addresses this directly, replacing thirsty grass with resilient plantings built to handle sustained heat and limited rainfall. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's WaterSense program, landscapes designed with region appropriate, water efficient plants can reduce outdoor water use by 20 to 50 percent compared to conventional turf heavy yards, savings that matter significantly in an inland climate like Ontario's.

Satisfied Clients

"We'd been dreading our water bill every summer for years, so we finally called Los Angeles Xeriscape to redo our front and back yards. They walked us through the whole process, from soil testing to plant selection, and were upfront about what would actually work for our specific spot instead of just pushing whatever was easiest. The install crew was efficient and cleaned up perfectly after themselves. It's been a few months now and our water bill has already dropped noticeably. Wish we'd done this years ago."

"After years of fighting with a patchy lawn that never looked good no matter how much we watered it, we finally gave in and called Los Angeles Xeriscape. Best decision we've made for this house. They actually took the time to explain why certain plants would work in our yard and which ones wouldn't survive our microclimate, which no other company had bothered to do. The finished design looks way more polished than I expected, and we haven't had to think about the sprinklers nearly as much. Highly recommend if you're on the fence about making the switch."

Front & Backyard Design Built for Local Conditions

We design Ontario front yards around strong curb appeal, using layered native plant groupings, defined pathways, and boulders to create lasting visual structure. Backyards focus on livability, incorporating shaded seating areas and drought tolerant plantings that keep outdoor space usable even during peak summer heat.

Native Plant Installations Suited to the Inland Empire

Our xeric garden and native plant installations draw on drought resistant shrubs, native grasses, and flowering perennials adapted to Ontario's inland heat and dry conditions. Research from the Xerces Society and multiple university extension programs has found that established native plantings can reduce fertilizer and pesticide needs by up to 60 percent, cutting down on both maintenance and chemical use once plantings are established.

Commercial & HOA Xeriscaping and Full Design Services

Businesses, property managers, and HOA communities throughout Ontario turn to our commercial and HOA xeriscaping for landscapes that satisfy water use expectations while maintaining a polished, professional appearance across shared spaces. For homeowners who want the complete experience, our landscaping design and installation service manages everything from the initial site visit to the final walkthrough, while our horticulture and plant selection consulting service remains available separately for those who already have a vision and just need expert plant guidance.

Ontario's Turf Replacement Rebate

The City of Ontario, through Ontario Municipal Utilities Company, offers a strong incentive for making the switch. Residential customers are eligible for 3 dollars per square foot through the Turf Replacement Program when qualifying turf is removed and replaced with a water efficient landscape. As with other regional programs, pre-approval is required before any turf removal begins, and we help clients navigate the application process to secure this rebate before starting their project.
