ROYAL VISTA APARTMENT HOMES
Our most recently completed apartment home community features a knock-out pool and outdoor entertaining space. Plants, pavers, and pool colors were selected to compliment the building color palette. A variety of palm trees, hardy tropical plants, and succulents were included to entice and retain residents. A network of outdoor grilling facilities and outdoor gas fire pits complete the community and add exciting features that make this property especially attractive to potential residents. We look forward to checking back in on this project once the plants have had a bit more time to grow.

TRES LAGOS community pool
Bougainvillea draped trellises anchor the 6,000 square foot pool that features lap lanes, water volleyball, etc. Gregg’s mistflower surrounds ample bicycle parking for the neighborhood children. Cuban royal and foxtail palms anchor the entranceway to the center. Layers of duranta, iris, and mistflower craft carefully orchestrated views. A hardy mixture of native and tropical plants that complement the building create a unique experience for all residents and visitors.

MIRABELLA APARTMENT HOMES
Contemporary style abounds at this beautiful apartment community. The shimmering pool is surrounded by outdoor kitchens and tanning ledges. The plant palette was kept to a minimum to complement the architecture. Orange flowers accentuate and enliven the outdoor spaces.
TEXAS REGIONAL BANKS
Over the past five years we have had the pleasure of designing the landscape and irrigation systems for each of the Texas Regional Bank branches in the Rio Grande Valley. We have successfully completed designs for both new construction and for branches that required a facelift. By standardizing the plant material and irrigation equipment at each branch we were able to streamline the maintenance and management operations. The plant palette includes a mixture of native and adaptive native plants to create an inviting space that reflects the South Texas spirit. Featured plants include whale’s tongue agave, red yucca, weeping yucca, Mexican bird-of-paradise, orange bulbine, natal plum, and mesquite. These low maintenance landscapes are cost effective and use less water than some standard commercial landscape designs. Each branch is in a different city with a different landscape ordinance. Since we are well versed in the landscape ordinance requirements for all cities in the Rio Grande Valley and San Antonio the required permits were acquired without delay.
