The Water and Sewer Department encourages homeowners to cultivate plants that are naturally suited to the average rainfall and local climate of the region. This practice of efficient landscaping, called Florida-friendly landscaping, utilizes native plants in order to conserve water. Florida-friendly landscaping requires little fertilizer and pest control measures, calls for minimal pruning, and provides many attractive planting options. Most importantly, Florida-friendly gardens require much less watering than traditional gardens. This adds up to big savings in time and money!
