Description
Bring a rainbow of color to your yard that attracts pollinators and onlookers alike with the Rainbow Delight garden. Pollinators will be enticed in the spring as soon as the weather warms up with fragrant Catmint and show-stopping Iceplant blooms. The Aster, Bee Balm, and Prairie Yellow Coneflower, a classic garden color-combo of purple and pale yellow, sustain bees and other pollinators until late in the summer and fall, making this garden a haven for bees and blooms all season long.

What To Expect
- Each garden contains starter plants in 4-inch pots.
- The plants will be small relative to their mature size and may not be in bloom.
- Occasionally things don't grow as planned. At times, we may have to substitute specific plants but we will always do our best to maintain the color and feel of the original design.

Great for the Gardening Novice
Great program for novice gardeners (me!). Very easy to plant. Curious to see how the plants do now that the rains have let up for a few days.

Saving Water!
So excited to see this coming to fruition. Learned a lot from getting all these native plants. Will definitely be saving a lot of water in this area that was so hard to grow turf.

Waterwise and Affordable
This is a great program. I've wanted to xeriscape for a few years now and this helped me to be able to afford it. Thank you!
