Presenting the 24th Annual Water-Wise Landscape Tour
The City of Dallas is hosting the 24th WaterWise Landscape Tour with nine private homes and two public gardens on the tour route. Headquarters for the event is the White Rock Pump Station with gardening talks and the tours beginning at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 27. The first 500 tour participants will receive a free hose-end spray nozzle.
The self-guided tours give participants a close look at drought tolerant plants and gardens that are in themselves, complete ecosystems because insects and small wildlife such as resident and migratory birds, live and gain sustenance from the plants and habitat areas. Dallas Master Gardeners will be at the tour locations to assist visitors. There is no admission fee.
