Drought Tolerant Ground Covers

Drought Tolerant Ground Covers

Drought tolerant ground covers are one of the easiest ways to create a low-maintenance xeriscape that still feels full, colorful, and inviting. These hardy plants spread across the soil like a living mulch, helping retain moisture, reduce weeds, and cut down on the amount of watering your landscape needs.

Many ground covers also work as lawn alternatives for dry climates, slopes, pathways, rock gardens, and difficult areas where traditional grass struggles. Whether you want flowering plants, evergreen coverage, native species, or fast-spreading options, drought-tolerant ground covers can help you build a more water-wise landscape.
