Waterefficient landscaping
Why follow our tips for being water-efficient in your landscaping?
- Less maintenance — Choosing plants that are drought resistant or native to Toronto means they are adapted to grow with little need to weed, add extra nutrients or add water in addition to rain. Less time caring for your plants means more time to enjoy them.
- Create interest — Natural gardens don’t need to be boring or wild-looking. This guide will help you to plan a great design, one that can bloom throughout the year and add colour and interest to home.
- Healthier landscaping — Instead of controlling weeds and other pests with pesticides this guide gives you advice on alternative ways to keep your lawn and garden looking beautiful.
- Environmentally friendly — Using less water means you are helping to protect our planet's precious resources.
All Ontario residents will now be able to enjoy safe and healthy lawns as the province has a ban on the cosmetic use of pesticides.
