PID's Demonstration Garden

About. 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.

Planning your visit. The garden is open from dawn to dusk at 6344 Clark Road (the north driveway to the Paradise Irrigation District office), Paradise, CA 95969. Questions? Call 530/877-4971

Jasmine along the fenceline

Star Jasmine (Trachelospermum jasminoides)  We've added Star Jasmine, a climbing vine along the garden fence. Jasmine has glossy leavees and sweet-scented flowers that bloom for two or three months starting in late spring. We planted our jasmine every ten feet along the fenceline and expect it to cover the fence in one to two years. Approximate fence length: 240 feet Plant Stage: Establishing Irrigation Inline drip tubing is used to water this linear planting.   Emitters are 1 GPH spaced 12" apart
