Did you know 80% of household water in the Coachella Valley is used for irrigating yards and gardens?
By planting native, you can save on your water bill while supporting the environment. Native plants provide essential habitat for local wildlife, including butterflies and hummingbirds. Plus, they create stunning, water-wise landscapes that will make your garden the envy of the neighborhood!
