Landscape Design & Installation in Fountain Hills
designed for the desert, not transplanted from somewhere else
Real Arizona landscape design works with the climate, the soil, the water, and the wildlife — not against them. We design plant palettes, irrigation, and grading that thrive in the desert and look intentional doing it.
What's different about landscape in Fountain Hills
Dark-sky lighting, hillside engineering, view-corridor and drainage requirements can apply here; the owner confirms what currently applies to the property with the town. AE designs the assigned scope to the requirements confirmed for the project.
Permits:The Town of Fountain Hills handles municipal permitting and any design review it requires. AE performs only the work currently offered, accepted and explicitly assigned in the signed scope; the customer confirms the current requirements for the property with the authority having jurisdiction and any HOA/ARC or insurer, and no permit, inspection, HOA, or code acceptance is guaranteed.

Landscape in Fountain Hills — FAQ
What plants actually work in Arizona?+
More than people think — desert-adapted natives, low-water non-natives, and selective accent plants all have their place. We have a full plant guide with photos, water needs, and seasonal notes.
How often do I need to water?+
Depends on plant, season, and exposure. Properly engineered drip and a smart controller make this nearly automatic.
Do you remove existing landscape?+
Yes — removal, hauling, and grading correction are part of every redesign scope.
