The City of Bozeman has installed water efficient demonstration gardens around the City to showcase the beauty of water smart landscaping. Take a stroll around these gardens for inspiration and learn how you can create your own water smart garden!

The water wise demonstration gardens include drought tolerant and water smart plants.
  • Drought tolerant plants generally don't need extra watering after becoming established, unless there is a long dry spell. Plants are considered "established" usually two to three seasons after planting.
  • Water smart plants can withstand periods without supplemental water but will need deep watering during hot and dry conditions.

Please browse our interactive map and check out these gardens in person! Click on each map waypoint to access photos, plant lists, and information about the installation of each of these gardens.
