Some desert landscaping is artful, but often it is used merely to escape mowing. Lawns are cooling; something to be appreciated, but Mowing-to-Growing seems to me to be a better use of both land and water. I hope this program stimulates lots of good projects. -Rick Lehtinen, Mesa, AZ. Here in Arizona, xerescaping is promoted as a means to conserve water.
