North Texas is prone to drought in the summer and it can be hard to keep plants from drying out. Luckily, many of our native plants are drought-tolerant and accustomed to thriving with little water. Even non-drought tolerant plants can be helped by following smart watering strategies. Whether you want a yard full of plants or a lawn, choosing tough plants and knowing how to care for your landscape in a drought can help keep it lush, even in hard times.

 

Learn about:

  • The importance of water efficiency in a drought
  • Common gardening mistakes that lead to water loss
  • The basic principles of landscape design
  • The best drought-tolerant native plants for your garden
  • How to choose native turf for your lawn
  • How to keep your garden healthy in times of drought

 

This is a free online event. Register here to receive information on how to participate.

The class will be 45 minutes long and taught by a Tarrant County Master Gardener.

 

This event is brought to you by the Mansfield Water Utilities and Tarrant Regional Water District.
