Greeley program to create low water use gardens
Lots of people want to have a garden filled with flowers and other plants they can enjoy throughout the year. The problem is they may not know how to get started, but a program that is on offer in Greeley can help.
Xeriscaping refers to horticultural practices that use little water, and can be useful in urban, suburban and other environments. Greeley has an active water conservation program, and one of its components is its Garden in a Box initiative. The plants included in this have been chosen because they are good choices for a xeriscape garden.
Residents can order a box, and there are several types to choose from. The plants included will all be adapted to local soil types and climate, which can help to take the guesswork of choosing which greenery to install. Orders are being accepted now for September pick up, and anyone who would like a little bit of inspiration for their own yard is invited to stop by the Greeley Xeriscape Garden.
Each box ordered will include simple plant care guides and planting map, which can help to take the guesswork out of installing the new garden. A company that prints letterheads and other stationery products can be counted on to supply items like these.
Anyone interested in taking advantage of the Garden in a Box program is asked to order their plants now. They will be available for pickup on September 15th at a designated spot in the community, the location of which will be released closer to that date.
