Here is what people are saying about the Conservation Garden Park:

“There’s an increased awareness of customers asking for plants by name that they saw in the Conservation Garden Park. And they’re so excited about the possibilities”

“I got the idea to change my landscape from visiting the Conservation Garden Park. I changed my front and back yards to waterwise landscapes and I’ve only had to weed twice this year, probably for a total of two hours. Compare that with the hours you spend mowing and trimming, and you save so much time! I plan to continue adding waterwise elements to my yard over time.”

“My husband and I have been to the Garden on a number of occasions and have been inspired by the wonderful plants being used to demonstrate how beautiful a waterwise garden can be. We intend to begin renovating our yard with some of the plant selections we’ve been attracted to. I look forward to spring when the Garden will begin blooming again and fully intend to stop by during the winter to see how the Garden looks out of season.”

“Kudos on your organization’s demonstration garden! I have been to the Garden a couple of times, and I found it to be a wonderful resource when planning my front yard. My yard is slowly turning into a green oasis as the plants fill in, and most of them are xeric. Neighbors have stopped by to photograph it and have asked a lot of questions. It’s great to see that my yard is now helping to show that waterwise landscapes can be lush and green all summer long—without taxing our limited water resources. We need the inspiration that your organization provides!”
