        "text": "Sustainable landscape design significantly reduces water consumption through several strategies. We prioritize drought-tolerant and native plant species adapted to the Los Angeles climate, which require less supplemental irrigation. Efficient irrigation systems, such as drip irrigation and smart controllers that adjust based on weather, are installed to deliver water precisely where needed. Additionally, improving soil health with organic matter enhances water retention, and practices like mulching reduce evaporation. These measures collectively minimize reliance on potable water for landscape maintenance.",
