Why a Rain Garden?

Rain gardens are miniature water treatment systems, that can be beautified  with the very adaptable native forbs, grasses, and shrubs.  Not only will the deep roots adapt to the water, they will also survive the dryer conditions.  By using the suggested species, you will also bring blooms and wildlife to your backyard Rain Garden.
