Looking for ways to add a little green into your landscape? Find inspiration with a variety of water-saving shrubs and trees! Shrubs provide some beautiful shades of green.

While trees not only provide clean air, they also add depth and dimension to the landscape, and will enhance your neighborhood with colors and textures.

Learn about proper maintenance practices for a variety of shrubs and trees that do well in the SCV. Join SCV Water for its free, virtual gardening class – Trees and Shrubs for the SCV on Saturday, Dec, 11, 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., from the comfort of your own home.
