Register here to join our free class to learn how! 

North Texas summers can be a very harsh time 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 

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