Advice from the Owner

Once planted it’s been an easy landscape to care for. We’ve improved the curb appeal of our home while reducing our water costs and eliminating the weekly grass cutting chore. Also we’re saving on fertilizers and lawn treatments. We’re looking forward to next year when the water need will be reduced even more. Happy we decided to make this change and grateful for Resource Central and all the support they offer.
