G3’s Kimberly Alexander Imagines Beautiful Garden


Kudos to G3 Qualified Trainer, Kimberly Alexander, for her award-winning landscape display at the San Diego County Fair.  The garden was funded by San Diego Horticultural Society and the San Diego County Water Authority.  This garden shows people how they too can get a Watershed Wise landscape (known as a WaterSmart Garden in San Diego) by using permeable paving, capturing rainwater, directing downspouts into dry creek areas, planting with native and climate-appropriate plants, and building healthy Living Soil with mulch and worm castings.  The garden is functionally gorgeous, and that’s the future of California landscapes.
