Groovy tips to walk a little lighter on the planet

Plants

Use water wise plants that make you happy.  Put plants with the same water needs on the same irrigation valve. Plant natives that are meant to be in our climate, are stronger and more resistant to pests and disease.

  • Put plants with the same water needs on the same irrigation valve.
  • Plant natives that are meant to be in our climate, are stronger and more resistant to pests and disease
  • Use plants that invite birds, bees hummingbirds and butterflies.
  • Plant so that something is blooming year round.
  • Plant the right plant (or tree) in the right place.
Design your landscape in so it suits your personality and lifestyle!

Rooms in your garden

Create rooms in your garden for relaxing and playing.  A table and chairs creates an outdoor kitchen environment, a bench equals a living room and a couple of lounge chairs can feel like a sun-filled bedroom.

The table and chairs ($20 from an estate sale) make a perfect outdoor dining area! The table top is an old repurposed picture.

Fun fact

Did you know the grass used for most lawns uses a TON of water?

Try using a water-friendly alternative like [XXXX] - it still looks like a lawn, and uses very little water while staying green year-round!
