DRY ROCK BEDS PAYING OFF




About a year ago, during our DROUGHT 0f 2009, I decided that the two sunny beds in the front needed an overhaul. I hate spending extra money on water, and I only water when absolutely necessary.
So I put in a dry scape in one bed and a gravel garden in the other. This week it's paying off. I'm not watering daily, but weekly. In fact, the agaves are feeling perky and enjoying the sun tan. I'll have to start watering the rest of the garden just like before, but it's nice to pass by these beds and just smile.



Our PEACE Garden....easy on the eyes and easy on the water bill.
