It is important to hire a green builder who is experienced in energy-efficient building for your climate zone. Although much of this website applies to all areas, some applies to the climate zone of North Texas or Central Texas such as Tyler or Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas.

Landscaping a Green Building

A Green Landscape Conserves Water

 

When using this website, remember that it is for the climate zone which includes North Texas and Central Texas--Dallas-Fort Worth, Tyler, Waco, Texas. Please consult a green builder or architect who understands and uses up-to-date green building practices for your area. 
Even when you are harvesting rainwater, you need drought-resistant landscaping natural to your area.

Why?

When your rain-harvesting cisterns are empty from lack of rain, it is likely your area will be in drought conditions and lawn watering might be restricted. 

The net zero energy home built by AndersonSargent in Frisco, Texas (the North Central area of Texas), stores three months of rain water in above-ground cisterns. In the rain-stingy summers of 2005 and 2006, that would not have been enough water, had it not been for the drought-resistant, natural Texas landscaping.
