Retain the rain with native plants and create habitat at the same time. Instead of allowing rainwater to flow into storm drains to increase flooding and municipal overflow, a rain garden captures water runoff from solid surfaces before it reaches the water system. The garden's roots filter and absorb excess water. Rain garden plants are excellent for attracting birds and butterflies, as well. Our 128 Plant Rain Garden is designed to handle a rooftop run off for a 700 square foot roof area. Layout and instructions are included.

Can I substitute plants within a Pre-Planned Garden?
As a rule, we don't allow plant substitutions to be made in any of the Pre-Planned Gardens. If you are looking for more customization, our 32 and 16-Plant Custom Kits let you mix-and-match plants, with a wide variety of choices, for a great price.
Can these plants withstand frost in spring?
Yes. The plants in this garden will withstand frost in the spring. Newly transplanted plants may experience frost damage to the leaves, but the plant & roots remain alive (viable). If the frost or cold temperatures persist the plants can take some time to recover, but should continue to grow with warmer weather. If the plant foliage is damaged by frost (often it turns black or brown), remove the blackened or damaged foliage. New growth will slowly appear-most plants taking a few weeks to do so.
Most of the plants in our pre-planned gardens are hardy to zone 4, and only a few species are hardy to zone 5. Once the plants are established they are unlikely to be phased by seasonal weather.
Do you provide a recommended layout of where to plant the individual plants?
Yes, we provide a planting plant (layout) with each of our preplanned gardens. The layout plan that is visible in the product image gallery is included in the shipment, along with the plants. You can follow our planting plan, or feel free to get creative with your own arrangement!
