| LANDSCAPING PROJECT |
|
Our
grass is a fine fescue blend that is low maintenance
with a low mowing frequency. This fescue can be used in sun
or shade that receives little or no supplemental fertilization
or irrigation. When irrigation is necessary, try using alternatives
to sprinklers. If possible, install a drip irrigation system,
which delivers water directly to the roots. A
rain barrel system is also an excellent way to reduce
water usage and to have water on hand for dry spells. Tthe
Alternative Landscaping Project is a wonderful place to learn
about native, near-native and drought-resistant plants for your
home landscaping needs. You can download a full list of plant
descriptions as a PDF file. You will need the Adobe Acrobat Reader
to view the list.
