Landscaping in Escondido
Escondido sits in an inland valley in North County, where summers run much hotter than at the coast and winter nights can frost. Hillsides around the city have granite boulders and decomposed granite soils, and many larger lots on the edges border chaparral and old grove land. Heat-tolerant, low-water planting and efficient irrigation make a big difference here, and properties near wildland may face defensible space requirements.
