Remodel your yard for drought — and the future of water in Colorado
Colorado is facing a historic drought, and Denver Water is enforcing summer outdoor watering rules, including drought pricing and mandatory outdoor watering restrictions of two days per week on assigned days.
Outdoor watering is the largest use of water for most households — and it’s also where you can make the biggest difference. Remodeling your yard with water-wise ColoradoScape can help you reduce your outdoor water use now while creating a more resilient, beautiful landscape for the long term.
Now is the right time to remodel your yard
- Mandatory watering restrictions mean water-thirsty turfgrass is harder to maintain.
- Climate change is increasing heat and reducing reliable snowpack, making Kentucky bluegrass less sustainable year after year.
- Water-wise ColoradoScapes use significantly less water and are designed to thrive in our dry Colorado climate.
- Even during establishment, ColoradoScapes need less water than Kentucky bluegrass.
Remodeling even part of your yard now can reduce water use and create a landscape that is more resilient in our semi-arid climate.
