Approved Trees and Plants

This information has been taken from the Rancho Viejo South Homeowner Handbook dated 2013. Please reference below while planning your landscape.

“Rancho Viejo is surrounded by beauty—the earth, the sky, and the landscape. Rancho Viejo’s landscape guidelines were developed to retain this natural beauty.

The landscape guidelines for Rancho Viejo South emphasize using native New Mexico plants. Our native New Mexican trees, shrubs and wildflowers have proven that they can provide color and beauty on the limited natural rainfall of Santa Fe.

Using native and drought tolerant plants reduces the community’s use of water—saving precious water and lowering homeowner association maintenance costs.”
