Lyrics to a song "i beg you pardon I never promised you a rain garden"

This is where we grow raindrops....

Okay here's an expert at bioswale - goal being to capture as much rain and have it soak and save in your plot.  First you don't want this up against the foundation of your structure as can cause mildew and rot.  This is not a swamp. The slope and drainage of soil type are considered in planning. Here in California with drought we ought to have more of this idea, even permeable driveways. I built a hugelkultur bed next to rain garden on a ranch to save the runoff roof gutters are directed to storage and the rain garden the hugelkulture raised bed uses less water for my vegetables. I will take some photographs for you Tony and Suzanne Marriott, Associate Brokers  could be useful in Arizona where you also have water shortages.  Much better than rolling out astroturf 

AR blogs that helps us grow?

Tony and Suzanne Marriott, Associate Brokers A much smaller version of a "Rainforrest".

A place where you would not find umbrellas or flash flooding!

Ricky Nelson crying at the Garden Party

That does not exist in the desert

Rain is an essential for a good garden.

A great use of rain water. If only our cities were as smart to capture rain water and preserve it. 

In California, if you have a garden dependent on the rain, it is a dead garden.

What if you have no rain would you call it a "no rain garden"?

Once again you whet my appetite to learn something new everyday in life and on ActiveRain.  

A small space to take advantage of rainfall and stormwater runoff in plant selection! Then on to Richard Week's response!

Tony and Suzanne Marriott, Associate Brokers - missed yesterday's question - now I know the answer, too.

And 'Rain Garden' is what Sam Shueh shared in the picture.

thank you for explaining yesterday's question - I couldn't even find it in google~

Rain garden i assume is something that catches the rain and holds it?

It's a garden watered by rain water. 

Sam Shueh has the answer and reason why my husband connected one of the downspouts to a rain barrel to provide rain water for my flower garden.

Not sure but it sounds WET

it's a low area that absorbs runoff from impervious areas like driveways and rooftops....
