It’s not easy to maintain a grass lawn in the Denver area, where landscape enthusiasts face weather that constantly fluctuates — when it’s not just plain dry.

This kind of future-minded thinking isn’t just for scientists, especially when it comes to planning new ways to use water more efficiently. Your contribution can be as simple as remodeling your yard.

Your yard could be a lot more interesting than grass alone. Even better, it could use less water.
