The garden allows ridge residents to learn more about the best plants for ridge landscaping, water-wise gardening concepts and different ways to efficiently irrigation a ridge garden and yard.
Visitors can wander through the garden and see first-hand planting areas which have a focus on erosion control, plants to encourage butterflies, pollinators and birds; and drought-and-shade-tolerant plants.
We've added Star Jasmine, a climbing vine along the garden fence. Jasmine has glossy leaves and sweet-scented flowers that bloom for two or three months starting in late spring. We planted our jasmine every ten feet along the fence line and expect it to cover the fence in one to two years.
Approximate fence length: 240 feet
