Xeriscapes & Pollinator Gardens

At Arterra Landscape, we design and build xeriscapes and pollinator-friendly gardens that blend natural beauty with ecological responsibility. Serving homeowners across Denver, Arvada, Boulder, Lakewood, and the greater Colorado Front Range, we specialize in creating low-water landscapes that thrive in Colorado’s unique climate—without compromising on color, texture, or seasonal interest.
Our xeriscape landscaping solutions are crafted using native and drought-tolerant plants, strategic hardscaping, and efficient irrigation to reduce water use and maintenance. By incorporating pollinator-attracting plants, such as native wildflowers, flowering shrubs, and ornamental grasses, we also create safe, healthy habitats for bees, butterflies, and other beneficial insects.
With our focus on sustainable design, your landscape will not only look beautiful year-round but also support local biodiversity and reduce environmental impact.
