“With outdoor watering restrictions becoming a constant fact of life across our entire region, maintaining a beautiful landscape is becoming much more challenging,” said Scott Anderson, AgriLife Extension agent in Brown County. “Nice landscapes are still attainable, but it appears we will have to transition to a different set of plant materials to be able to maintain the lush look so many homeowners strive for. The goal of this series is to help homeowners make that transition as smooth as possible.”
