Wisteria, Cooke's Special

There are usually 13-15 leaflets per leaf, and they require full sun and average to little watering. 'Cooke's Special' has a brilliant blue flower.

Shrub Rose

The dark green, heavily veined leaves of this bushy shrub are strong support for the pure white or pink, nearly double flowers it produces. This is a very tolerant, heavily scented plant with an impressive fall color. Also, large hips appear intermittently with this plant.

Soils and Compost:

Physical weed control, including mulching, or hand removal protects the watershed from harmful chemicals.

Check your irrigation system for breaks, leaks and problems once a month.

Integrated Pest Management:

Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
