Rain gardens are one way of reducing and managing stormwater runoff. When planning one, contact your local nursery and explain what conditions the plants will have to deal with. Wherever possible, choose indigenous species.
See an earlier rain garden post that contains a written explanation of how to build a rain garden. If rain gardens are not suitable for your particular situation, you can still help to reduce stormwater runoff by harvesting rainwater. Water Rhapsody supplies and installs rainwater systems, water tanks, greywater recycling systems and other water systems that save water and money without the need for changing your lifestyle. See our product demo. Water Rhapsody Mpumalanga/Limpopo offer free assessments and quotes for all our water systems and we are authorized regional JoJo Water Tank dealers. We source, supply and install other types and makes of tanks as well as water tank stands. Contact us now for a free quote!
