Book: Gardening with Less Water

This guide offers simple, inexpensive, low-tech techniques for watering your garden more efficiently, especially when facing a drought or water shortage, while using up to 90 percent less water. Featuring illustrated step-by-step instructions to show you how to install buried clay pots and pipes, wicking systems and other porous containers that will deliver water directly to a plant's roots with little to no evaporation. These systems are easy to set up and use, are available at most hardware stores and garden centers and will work well for garden beds, container gardens and trees.
