LANDSCAPE WATERING BY THE NUMBERS


Developed by the Valley water conservation offices, Landscape Watering by the Numbers: A Guide for the Arizona Desert takes you step-by-step to determine how much, how long, and how often to water your landscape plants to keep them healthy and beautiful. Inside its pages you'll find:
  • How many gallons of water your plants need depending on type and size
  • Where best to apply the water around your landscape plants
  • How to water your grass and landscape efficiently
  • Methods to measure the water output of your irrigation system
  • An easy worksheet to determine how long to water
  • Watering frequency guidelines depending on the time of year
  • How to schedule an irrigation controller
  • A handy maintenance calendar and troubleshooting guide
Visit Water Use It Wisely to download a pdf of the booklet, or contact your local participating water conservation office or water providers for a free copy of Watering by the Numbers.

The same people who developed this popular booklet have created an online version that makes it even easier to learn how to water your landscape effectively and efficiently, keeping your landscape healthy and attractive while conserving water.
