Waterwise Garden
Landscaping choices play an important part in protecting Puget Sound’s water resources and the wildlife that depend on it. A visit to the shady pathways of this award-winning display confirms that splendid gardens don’t require large amounts of water or garden chemicals that can harm children, pets, and the Puget Sound.
You’ll learn new practices and discover plantings that conserve water, lower chemical use, reduce runoff, recycle waste, and preserve habitat – all without sacrificing an ounce of beauty.
Bellevue Utilities sponsors the Waterwise Garden and its Natural Gardening Resources.
