Go Xeric with a Professionally Designed Garden-In-A-Box: each purchase supports the Gardens on Spring Creek

FORT COLLINS, CO – Fort Collins Utilities and the Gardens on Spring Creek are partnering with the Center for ReSource Conservation (CRC) to offer several plant-by-number garden designs.
Each Garden-in-a-Box is professionally designed and contains 21 to 42 low-water plants that thrive in Colorado’s arid climate. Each kit comes with planting and maintenance instructions. Design options include Radiance Garden (33 plants for $125), Paradise Garden (29 plants for $125), Parkway Paradise (42 plants for $145), Incredible Edible (33 plants for $100 or 51 plants for $135) and Splendid Shade (25 plants for $85). Fort Collins residents will receive a $25 discount on each garden. Plus, just enter or mention the code “GSC” when ordering and the Gardens on Spring Creek, Fort Collins' botanic garden, will receive $15 - $25 per garden.
