One of Arid Plant Designs goals is to provide their Pima County clients with professional, high quality, and affordable services. Arid Plant Designs relishes the opportunity to show you just how beautiful your landscape can become with the right approach.

Their capabilities are far-ranging, and their workmanship is unparalleled, allowing them to deliver best-in-class landscapes to their customers. Coordinating and installing Forestry, Trees, and Shrubs is a cornerstone of their design process. Contrary to what you might think, xeriscaping doesn’t mean zero-scaping. In fact, desert and native Arizona plants including cacti, succulents, trees, and shrubbery provide you with a lush and verdant landscape. Rock accents can be used for everything from focal features to hiding irrigation controls and beyond, making them a versatile addition to many of our landscape designs. Stone is also a staple component for any xeriscape design. While some xeriscaping in Tucson, AZ requires no watering, it’s not uncommon for the plants in your yard to need a minimal water drip system. Arid Plant Design’s can install irrigation systems that take this cumbersome task away, while still leaving you with beautiful plants. Gravel is a tremendous medium to work with when it comes to filling and accenting. We utilize different grades and colors to bolster the overall appeal of your landscape. Many homeowners believe the arid climate of Arizona isn’t conducive to having a beautiful landscape. Often, it’s these same homeowners that are stunned and amazed when they see how trees, cacti, succulents, shrubbery, gravel, and minimal irrigation, can come together to create a truly stunning xeriscape landscape design in Tucson, AZ!.
The result, one of the most successful Landscaping in Arizona !
What do their customers think?
Sarah S – “Arid Plant Designs just finished my backyard and I absolutely couldn’t be happier! All we knew when we started was that we wanted “landscaping done” but were totally clueless. David came up with a fantastic plan tailored to us, our location, and even our dogs, and we loved it immediately. The entire process was quick and painless, and everyone involved was professional at all times. The price never fluctuated from the agreed upon amount. The landscape design itself is wonderful. It’s very colorful, and seems more like our own desert-themed botanical garden as opposed to just a “back yard”. I’m excited to see what it looks like when our plants have been growing for a year! We will definitely be using his services for any other landscaping needs.”
Hal Z – ”We spoke with four other companies prior to our appointment with David and nobody ever mentioned plants. David is very passionate about plants and his designs worked well with our needs and budget. Immediately, he started on the project and finished in 6 days. We had a 2100 sq ft muddy back yard that he turned into a National Park nature trail. David stands behind his plants as a few of them did not survive the summer heat and he replaced them. Just trust his vision and let leave him to his art. No one else is going to care about the balance of yard privacy, water conservation, and practical budget demands like Arid Plant Designs.”
Having owner operated experts, like David providing knowledgeable and expert care is an asset to Tucson and Pima County, AZ.
