Drought Tolerant Landscaping
Tonight, 6:30-8:00 pm
San Jose Public Library, West Valley Branch, 1243 San Tomas Aquino Road, San Jose
This year’s drought has left us all a little more conscientious about the amount of water we use. Now that fall is upon us, it is the perfect time to re-think your landscaping to reduce the amount of water you use. Join Master Gardener Lisa Strand as she talks through steps you can take now to make your landscape more drought-friendly. She’ll cover which California natives and other low-water plants grow well in our area, and teach you how to get them successfully established. She’ll also discuss how to convert your lawn into a beautiful water and wildlife-friendly garden.
