Grass Cut Down

This landscape demonstrates reducing the size of a lawn as a water conservation strategy. The turfgrass was removed from the parkway and replaced with gravel, while the outer edges of the front yard have been changed into low-maintenance shrub beds. The two shade trees get watered by the regular lawn watering.  The lawn sprinklers were moved inward to maximize water savings.
