Waterwise gardening is a mindset, not rocket science, but simply using some common-sense methods and techniques to conserve a dwindling resource.
And expect some dramatic side effects.
One is lower water (and perhaps energy) bills.
Fewer harmful salts and minerals go onto the surface of the soil.
Waterwise gardening encourages growth of beneficial microbes, and beneficial macro-organisms (such as earthworms) that feed on them.
Finally, it helps create a bountiful and beautiful garden, healthier plants, healthier soil and ultimately a healthier environment.
You’ll find hundreds of articles and blogs about waterwise gardening and desert gardening here and a Waterwise/Desert Gardening Glossary.
