The City’s fourth water conservation demonstration garden is now ready for visitors. Oklahoma City and Oklahoma State University officials will cut the ribbon to formally open the garden:

• 10 a.m. Friday, June 10
• Bluff Creek Park
• 4551 W Hefner Road (Entrance at 11301 N Meridian Ave.)

During a pleasant stroll through the water conservation demonstration garden, visitors will see practical, first-hand examples of Oklahoma tough plant materials and landscape designs to use in their own landscapes. Signs throughout the garden help identify plants that require less outdoor water use. 

The Utilities Department partnered with the Oklahoma Cooperative Extension Service to promote water conservation through proper outdoor watering and Oklahoma-tough landscaping. The demonstration garden will also be used as a teaching tool for workshops and seminars.
