Benefits of Rain Gardens
Planting colorful rain gardens on your property to absorb storm water is a
beautiful way to reduce runoff from your property and help replenish groundwater.
The colorful native plants used in a rain garden have deep roots, which absorb runoff water. They are also resilient plants that need little attention. Rain gardens add color to your landscape and help keep wet areas of the yard drier.
Rain gardens can be located in anexisting low areas which slope downward away from a patio, driveway, or gutter downspout.
