Serving Paradise Valley and nearby communities.
Not every square foot of an estate lot needs grass, and not every square foot needs to be gravel either. Paradise Valley Artificial Turf Pros designs combined layouts that put turf where it's actually used, patios, play zones, pet areas, and pair it with drought-tolerant plantings and rock everywhere else.
The goal is a yard that reads as intentional landscape design, not a leftover lawn with rocks dumped around the edges. That balance matters in Paradise Valley, where design review boards look closely at how a property's landscaping reads from the street.

How Our Xeriscape + Turf Combo Design Process Works
Step 1Landscape concept design
We balance turf zones against drought-tolerant plant areas for your lot.
Step 2Zone mapping
Turf, rock, and plant placement get laid out before any ground is disturbed.
Step 3Soil and rock prep
Turf zones and planting beds get prepped differently since they need different drainage.
Step 4Turf section installation
Turf goes down in the mapped zones per the approved design.
Step 5Plant bed integration
Drought-tolerant plants and rock features fill out the remaining areas.
Step 6Design finishing touches
Borders and transitions get refined for a cohesive look.
Materials
Materials and Methods for Xeriscape + Turf Combo Design
Mixed-zone turf fibers
Turf blends suited for both open-sun and partially shaded zones, since combo yards rarely get uniform light exposure.
Decorative rock borders
Rock defines clean boundaries between turf and planting beds without hard edges.
Drought-tolerant plant stock
Low-water plants fill the non-turf zones and hold up through Arizona's dry summer stretch.
Permeable paver accents
Pavers allow water flow while adding design contrast to turf zones.
Mulch ground cover
Mulch reduces water evaporation in planted areas adjacent to turf.
Edge transition strips
Strips create clean separation between turf and xeriscape materials.

FAQs
Xeriscape + Turf Combo Design FAQs
Why not just use turf for the whole yard?
Some zones, especially ones that don't get foot traffic, don't need turf at all. Mixing in drought-tolerant plants and rock cuts cost and water use without sacrificing curb appeal.
Will this design pass HOA or town design review?
Combo designs often pass more easily than all-turf fronts because they read as planned landscaping rather than a lawn swap. We can prepare documentation if your property requires review.
How much water does a combo design actually save?
It depends on how much of the yard converts away from grass, but removing irrigation-dependent turf zones in favor of drought-tolerant planting typically cuts outdoor water use noticeably.
Can existing plants be kept in the design?
Tell us what you want to keep during the site walkthrough and we'll design the turf zones around those features.
What's the cost compared to full-yard turf?
Combo designs can cost less overall since turf, the pricier material, only covers part of the lot. Ask for a free estimate with your specific zone breakdown.
