Joe Hernandez
Landscaper
Landscaper with 18 years experience specializing in xeriscaping, drip irrigation, and North Texas native plants. Bermuda grass and foundation azaleas were fine 20 years ago, but Collin County water restrictions are getting tighter every year. I design landscapes that look beautiful with 50% less water — native grasses, drought-tolerant perennials, and smart irrigation that only waters when the soil needs it.

Front yard xeriscape conversion - Twin Creeks (Landscaping)
Joe transformed our dead front yard into a beautiful native garden. We went from fighting with bermuda grass to having a yard that actually thrives in North Texas. Neighbors stop and compliment it constantly. Our water bill dropped dramatically.
Response
Thank you David and Sarah! Native plants thrive because they evolved for this climate. No fighting nature — just working with it. Enjoy the compliments from the neighbors.
Smart irrigation retrofit - Star Creek (Landscaping)
The smart irrigation system Joe installed has already paid for itself. It rained the other day and the system knew not to run. Our old timer would have run anyway. He also switched us to drip in the beds — so much more efficient.
Response
Thanks Karen! Smart irrigation is a no-brainer in North Texas. Your system literally thinks for itself now.
Backyard patio and native garden (Landscaping)
Joe fixed our backyard flooding problem with a French drain. After every heavy rain we had standing water for days. Now it drains within hours. He also re-graded away from our foundation which we did not even know was an issue. Saved us from future foundation problems.
French drain and grading fix (Landscaping)
Beautiful patio and native garden in our backyard. Joe knew exactly which plants work in our soil and sun exposure. The butterfly garden attracts monarchs every fall. Low maintenance and gorgeous.
Response
Thanks Christine! Monarch butterflies love Greg's mistflower — your yard is now part of their migration corridor. That is pretty special.
