By doing that, you avoid huge expanses of green lawn and instead have dirt or rocks and natural plants here and there to make a pleasing design. Keeping it trimmed and cared for helps make it look great and you won't be using much water. If you have a lot of plants you might need to irrigate them, especially when they're just getting started.

For the most part, though, you can just leave the natural plants to fend for themselves. They're used to growing in that climate with the water that they would normally get, so there's no need for a system to give them water every day. You'll have a beautiful, naturally-landscaped yard and the environment will thank you.
