More lawns becoming drought-tolerant
After multiple drought years, many Californians converted their lawns to more water-wise, native and low- maintenance landscaping — mostly with success, they report. Marysville and Yuba City both have landscaping following the trend, in collaboration with other agencies.
“After a full year, we consider it a huge success,” said Lee Seidel, California Water Service district manager, of the landscaping at Marysville City Hall. “The planning and design itself has gotten nothing but compliments from the people that work at City Hall.”
