Description

Inspired by the striking beauty of the Desert Southwest and designed by Durango’s Eva Montane of Columbine Landscapes to thrive in both Western Colorado and the Front Range, this bold, 60 sq. ft. garden brings warm, glowing color to the shoulder seasons. With 80% native plants and rock-garden aesthetics, Sunset & Sage pairs the favorite Sunset Hyssop with silvery Fringed Sage for standout spring and fall interest. A great choice for lean soils, heat-tolerance, low-water landscaping, and a desert vibe.

What Customers Say

No More Guesswork!

I love how easy it was - I wasn't sure which native plants were best, and you did the work for me!

Denver Water participant

Perfect for Beginners

I loved the planting design! I'm not a natural gardener, so having a plan made it easy and affordable to build my own garden and participate in water savings!
