Best Answer

The beds in a water-wise

garden are divided into three gardening zones: oasis, transitional, and xeric.

The oasis zone is the area closest to the water source. These sources can be drain spouts, rain barrels, or a faucet and hose. Also include the area around the front door as an oasis, where you can easily water your container plants with water collected indoors.

The transitional zone is the area away from the house, about midway from the home to the end of the property. Plantings here should be sustainable, requiring only occasional supplemental water. Typically, these areas are island beds, driveway beds, or raised beds.

The xeric

zone is at the property's perimeter. These plants should be tough and should not require supplemental water. This area can be filled with dependable, drought-resistant

plants.
