With the exception of a couple of large palms, we’ve done (and are still in the process of doing) our own landscaping/planting. The main thing is to do research on the appropriate plants for this soil/climate and to remember that water restrictions should dictate the types of plants you choose. Also...keep in mind the in-ground irrigation system, the type of sprinker heads you have or might need to swap out...and dig carefully.
