Nel,

Planting with low water use in mind, plants that need little or no extra water.

Once established your plantings will survive and grow on rain water alone.

Xeri- greek word mean dry, scape is shortened from landscape = dry landscape.

Generally means no annuals flowers, just trees, shrubs and woody vines that are adapted to the climate you live in, without extra water (once established).
