We are allowed to water our garden only three times per week between 12 mid night and 8 am in the morning. My house has an add number so my days are Saturday, Monday and Wednesday. Violators will get citations for $500.
We are told if things don’t get better up by Lake Okeechobee where we get must of our drinking water the restrictions will go to 2 days per week to maybe no watering at all.
(I hope it will not get to that)
This weekend before the restriction go in affect I decided to water pressure clean my stone back yard.

Sorry about your water restrictions...I hope they get lifted. We've had them here in years past...hopefully, not this year.
12 midnight and 8AM is a little strict, isn't it? We're used to water restrictions here too (but probably not this year after all the snow we've had) but at least they give us after 6PM and until 9Am the next morning. Good idea to pressure-wash your stones while you can!
Water restrictions are a tragedy for a garden. Hopefully they won`t make them worse for you. Beautiful plants and Rosie is so sweet.

Hi Rusty,
Your garden looks great at the moment and I hope those water restrictions will not get any worse.
Perhaps you could look into the possibility of grey water use?
I don't know how much rain you get, but over here I have 2 big barrels to collect rainwater and am thinking of buying two more.
Just a thought!
Hi Yolanda I been think about that but I need a way to collect the water from the roof.
