This is a good reminder and can help you get the most out of our limited water.

Have limited water? Prioritize plants that have the most value, then work down the list as your resources allow! Trees need at least 10 gal. per inch of trunk diameter each week during the summer. After trees, water shrubs and bushes. Prioritize perennial plants over annual plants (including gardens). Lawn grass should be given last priority.

Not all the friendly-looking plants you see are friendly! Keep an eye out for Dalmatian Toadflax, an aggressive invader that uses its pretty, snapdragon-like flowers to hide in plain sight. It may look like our native Golden Banner from afar, but the a closer look can reveal its identity.

If you spot this tenacious impostor, check out wyoweed.org/wyld-watch/ to learn how to report it!
