As we face a devastating three-year drought and environmental court rulings impacting local water supply, the City’s Public Work’s Department is responding by creating a demon-stration garden, located at the Mu-nicipal Service Center, to promote southwestern natives and California friendly plants. This garden is a unique educational resource that features an array of native, drought tolerant plants and plant informa-tion.

There is a large water savings poten-tial in landscaping, with more than half of residential water usage ap-plied to outdoor landscape. By planting native and California friendly plants, you can save lots of water and maintain a beautiful, col-orful garden! An additional benefit of having a California friendly garden includes the attraction of essential wildlife, such as beneficial insects, pollinators and native birds.

The City was awarded partial funding to complete the demonstration gar-den from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California through its Community Partnering Program.
