Liberty Hill is acreage and ranch-style property country. The lots are big, the driveways are long, and the design question is not just what to plant but how much of the land to design at all. Most clients want the area near the house transformed and the rest left in native pasture. The well water limits the irrigation, and the South San Gabriel River shapes the properties near the water.
Landscaping in Liberty Hill: what is different here
Acreage and ranch-style properties rather than subdivision lots. The design has to work at a different scale: long driveways, entry features, and the transition from native pasture to designed landscape near the house.
Well water and the irrigation design limits that come with a well's flow rate. You cannot zone a system the way you would on city water. We design around the well's capacity so you never run the pump dry.
Long driveways and entry features: gates, entry monuments, and driveway planting. The drive from the road to the house is the first thing anyone sees, and on acreage it is a real design element, not just a path.
Transitioning native pasture to designed landscape near the house while leaving the rest natural. The line between designed and natural has to look intentional, not like someone ran out of budget.
The South San Gabriel River area has riparian conditions near the water: different soil, different drainage, and a different planting palette.
