Amy Ramos talks about her water-conserving garden.
A water-wise garden that I designed last year will be featured on Santa Barbara’s City TV in July.
A camera crew shot the garden and interviewed my client, Amy Ramos, this week for an episode of “Inside Santa Barbara.”
Amy explained how we ripped out the sod lawn in her front yard and replaced it with colorful, water-conserving shrubs, perennials and ground covers.
Another look at Amy’s garden.
She reduced her water bill and her maintenance, and got a beautiful, fragrant garden in keeping with the cottage style of her home in return.
Amy also received a $1,000 rebate from the city’s Smart Landscape Rebate Program. Check with me or visit savewatersb.org to see if you might qualify for a $1,000 rebate, too.

Very nice and well deserved recognition for the uber talented writer/ landscape designer Joan S Bolton of Santa Barbara.

Thanks, Lydia! I’m pretty excited about it. I’ve been told that there should be a clip on youtube at some point. I’ll post the link once it’s up.

Thanks, Debra! Although that’s not me anywhere in the photo. The two on the left are from City TV, the blonde is a water resources tech, and the woman facing both cameras is my client.
