At JPM Landscape, we specialize in “High-Altitude Sanctuary” design for the historic community of Holy City. With over 40 years of local experience, our team creates high-performance outdoor environments that balance the rugged, redwood-forested terrain of the Santa Cruz Mountains with the modern necessities of fire safety and hillside stability. From the former 142-acre cult headquarters along Old Santa Cruz Highway to modern hillside estates, we provide full-service landscape architecture that prioritizes defensible space and structural sophistication.
Elevate your mountain property with precision-engineered hardscaping designed for Holy City’s steep slopes and Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) requirements. JPM Landscape utilizes premium, non-combustible materials to craft reinforced stone retaining walls, interlocking paver patios, and winding flagstone walkways that double as effective fuel breaks. Our master craftsmen specialize in “Zone 0” design—creating a strictly non-combustible perimeter around your home with decorative rock, gravel, and masonry to prevent ember ignition.
We understand the geographical challenges of the Lexington Hills, including heavy winter runoff and seismic stability. Our team implements advanced hillside drainage and grading solutions to protect your property from erosion while meeting all Santa Clara County Building and Fire Codes. Whether you are looking to preserve the natural beauty of the redwoods or create a tiered terrace for entertaining, we utilize professional Bobcat services to provide a stable, permanent foundation for your mountain luxury.
Lead the way in environmental stewardship with “Regenerative Landscapes” that satisfy the strict requirements of CAL FIRE and the Santa Clara County FireSafe Council. JPM Landscape is a pioneer in fire-resilient and drought-tolerant design, helping Holy City residents create beautiful, water-smart sanctuaries. We assist you in maximizing the Valley Water Landscape Conversion Rebate, which can offer up to $2.00 per square foot for converting traditional turf or high-water plants into low-water native gardens.
Precision water management is the invisible engine of our mountain designs. We install state-of-the-art smart irrigation systems equipped with AI weather sensors that automatically adjust to the unique microclimate of the Santa Cruz Mountains. By focusing on “Lean, Clean, and Green” vegetation, we select high-moisture, fire-resistant natives like Manzanita (Arctostaphylos ‘Howard McMinn’), Western Redbud, and California Lilac. This tech-forward approach ensures your garden remains vibrant year-round while significantly reducing the fuel load on your property.
The final layer of a JPM Landscape project is the harmony of living elements and professional illumination. Our horticultural experts are specialists in “Redwood-Compatible” softscaping, selecting premium specimen plants—from privacy-enhancing Toyon to resilient Western Sword Ferns—that thrive under the mountain canopy. We prioritize “Ladder Fuel” removal, pruning lower tree limbs to create vertical space and thinning dense shrubs to prevent ground fires from climbing into the majestic redwood and oak crowns.
As the sun sets over the summit, your mountain retreat transitions into an enchanting escape with our custom low-voltage LED lighting systems. We design ambient nightscapes that highlight the architectural peaks of your home and the dramatic silhouettes of the forest. Strategic uplighting, path markers, and soft “moonlighting” fixtures create a safe, secure, and sophisticated atmosphere while adhering to Dark Sky principles to protect the local wildlife. Our energy-efficient systems allow you to enjoy your outdoor sanctuary long after the work day is finished.
California law requires 100 feet of defensible space. JPM Landscape focuses on Zone 0 (0-5 ft: non-combustible), Zone 1 (5-30 ft: lean and green, high-moisture plants), and Zone 2 (30-100 ft: reduced fuel zone with thinned brush and limbed trees).
To secure the rebate (up to $3,000 for residential), you must apply through Valley Water and receive a "Notice to Proceed" before starting any lawn removal. We manage the entire application and inspection process to ensure your water-wise design meets all requirements.
We recommend natives like Western Sword Fern, Wild Ginger, and Redwood Sorrel. For sunnier slopes, we use fire-resistant Salvias and Coffeeberry, which are naturally adapted to mountain life and attract local pollinators.
In Santa Clara County, significant grading or retaining walls over 3 feet (or those supporting a slope) require a permit. JPM Landscape handles all permit submittals and site plans to ensure your hillside structural work is fully compliant with local codes.
We utilize a combination of professional grading, French drains, and deep-rooted native plantings. Using permeable hardscaping and catch basins allows us to manage heavy mountain rainfall without washing away topsoil or damaging your home’s foundation.
