A Time for Action

Coleus

Xeriscaping has never looked so good. With global warming affecting our way of life, now is the time for change. The drought conditions throughout the world call for action. Here in zone 4 it appears to be another dry and hot season as we slowly shift to a desert climate. Years ago I planted numerous drought tolerant perennials knowing that my environment warranted this scenario. Water has become a very precious commodity and restrictions throughout the Midwest are being implemented. Lakes and reservoirs are drying up before our eyes and we need to do our part to conserve and make good decisions for the sake of the planet.
