This colorful, water-wise landscape renovation refreshed a Ken Caryl North Ranch property backing to open space. Griffith Designs developed a personalized landscape solution that balanced the homeowners’ love of color with the need for resilient, low-maintenance plantings suited to foothills weather, challenging soil, open-space exposure and frequent wildlife—all within budget. The side and backyard garden beds were cleaned out and simplified by removing difficult or unwanted plants. Refreshed rock and new irrigation created a stronger foundation for colorful, drought-tolerant and deer-resistant perennials and seasonal shrubs. In the front yard, struggling sod was reduced and replaced with new hardscape, plantings and large landscape boulders that add structure and natural Colorado character. The project also restored existing hardscape by resetting loose pavers along the front walkway and patio and installing new polymeric sand. Expanded outdoor landscape lighting complements the home’s existing lighting, improving visibility while highlighting the renewed planting areas and hardscape after sunset. Important irrigation repairs and upgrades were completed throughout the property, including locating leaks, replacing sprinkler valves and updating the control box, backflow and system components. Irrigation was then adjusted and extended to serve the new landscape areas. The finished design gives this Ken Caryl North Ranch home a colorful, water-conscious landscape that is attractive, functional and better prepared for Colorado’s demanding foothills environment.
