Here are some rain garden update photos. These pictures were taken in the last two weeks. The Liatris spicata is the plant that you see blooming. Notice how well the rain garden has filled in the last week.
It has been interesting to watch the bug activity increase around the rain garden. When you plant the correct plants they will come!
The other exciting thing about this rain garden...I have not watered it since it was put in, and look how healthy it works...doesn't that makes some of you who are using a lot of water during this dry spell stop to think?
The correct plants, planted in the correct place, do not need to be watered!
