Custom landscape design for Tustin homes
Tustin spans a wide range of homes — the historic character of Old Town, the family neighborhoods of Tustin Ranch, and the newer builds of Tustin Legacy. Good design here means matching the landscape to the home’s era and the homeowner’s lifestyle, whether that’s preserving period charm or giving a newer house a polished, modern yard.
Inland and warm, Tustin is well suited to drought-tolerant, low-maintenance design. We design and build landscapes that fit the architecture, work for the family, and keep upkeep and water use low.

What Tustin homeowners are designing right now
The styles and ideas we’re asked for most across Orange County’s coastal communities.
Drought-tolerant & California-native planting
Water-wise palettes — succulents, salvias, ceanothus, ornamental grasses — now anchor most Orange County designs. They thrive on our coastal Mediterranean climate with a fraction of a lawn’s water, and they look intentional year-round.
Lawn-to-landscape conversions
Replacing thirsty turf with layered planting, permeable hardscape, and mulch is the single most popular request — driven by water costs, rebates, and a richer look than flat grass.
Outdoor living rooms
Patios, shade structures, fire features, and built-in seating that turn the yard into usable square footage — the highest-return way to add living space without an addition.
Coastal-modern style
Clean lines, board-formed concrete, warm woods, and sculptural specimen plants — a refined look that suits coastal Orange County architecture from Newport to Laguna.
Smart, efficient irrigation
Weather-based controllers and drip conversions that water only what’s needed, protect planting, and qualify for rebates — increasingly designed in from day one.
Low-maintenance by design
Right-plant-right-place selection, generous mulch, and automated irrigation so the landscape looks great with minimal weekend upkeep — the real luxury for busy homeowners.
Water-Wise & Rebates
Beautiful landscapes that save water in Tustin
Southern California is a water-conscious region, and Orange County’s coastal climate is ideal for beautiful, low-water landscapes. Designing around drought-tolerant plants, efficient drip irrigation, and smart controllers keeps your yard lush while cutting the roughly 30% of household water that’s used outdoors (EPA WaterSense).
Replacing lawn can also pay you back. The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (via SoCal Water$mart) and the Municipal Water District of Orange County (MWDOC) offer turf-replacement rebates — historically around $2–$5 per square foot of grass removed, depending on funding and your local agency. We design to rebate requirements and help you check what’s currently available before you start.

Landscape design in Tustin: common questions
How much does landscape design cost in Tustin?
It depends on scope — a front-yard refresh, a full backyard, or a whole-property redesign all sit at different price points. As a guide, full design-build projects in Orange County commonly run from the low five figures up, and every consultation includes a free, itemized estimate. See our landscape design cost guide for realistic ranges.
Do I need a permit for landscaping in Tustin?
Most planting, irrigation, and standard hardscape don’t require a permit, but taller retaining walls, structural work, and some drainage or grading can — and HOA approval is often needed in Tustin. As your licensed C-27 contractor, we identify what’s required and handle it.
How long does a landscape design project take in Tustin?
Design typically takes 1–3 weeks, and installation ranges from a few days for a focused project to several weeks for a full property build. We give you a clear schedule with your estimate and keep one team on it start to finish.
Do you design drought-tolerant, water-wise landscapes in Tustin?
Yes — water-wise design is our default in Orange County. We build around drought-tolerant and California-native planting, efficient drip irrigation, and smart controllers, and we design to local turf-rebate requirements where you want to replace lawn.
Are you licensed and insured to work in Tustin?
Yes. All Seasons is a C-27 licensed (#788678) and fully insured design-build landscaper, serving Tustin and Orange County since 1987.
