This lawn-free front yard in Los Angeles stopped me in my tracks!

Filled with lively succulents, Mediterranean plants and California natives, I was enamored with the simple color combination of yellows, oranges and a touch of red.

An important design feature in lawn less landscapes is a non-flat garden floor.

A dynamic garden features mounded garden beds to showcase low growing, cascading plants.

When you replace a large flat area that was once covered with lawn, consider adding some soft berms or mounds.

Your new lawn less garden will look more interesting.
