Local context
What working in King City actually looks like.
Hot summers, cool wet winters, and clay-heavy soils that need amendment before plants thrive. MPWMD water rules and seasonal restrictions shape what's worth installing and how it has to be irrigated.
Smart-controller drip is the foundation. We blend turf where it makes sense with drought-tolerant plantings, broad mulched beds, and hardscape that anchors the property. Strong shade plans matter — afternoon sun is brutal here mid-summer.
- MPWMD water-use rules and conservation tier pricing
- Clay-heavy soil that benefits from compost amendment and gypsum
- Hot afternoon sun that drives shade tree placement
- Salinas Valley wind exposure on north-facing yards
