Ecotips for saving water in the garden

watering can
Let your lawn turn golden, grass is resilient and will bounce back again once it rains.
Hosepipes and sprinklers use about 1000 liters of water per hour (or 12 baths), so use a watering can instead.
Switch to a smaller paddling pool as the large ones use the same amount of water as a family of 4 in one week. When you need to replace the water, use it to give your plants a much needed drink.
