"The jumbo plan reduced my small yard by 1/3. So happy pleased with the outcome after just nine months. I stopped watering in May and suspect I won’t need to water until the heat of August (if that). Pictures are from September, late April, early June and late June."
"I am in New England and have a new garden bed that I wanted to have in place for the summer. Plants are tiny. If you order this, order early in the season, and maybe they will begin to grow. Compared to the local perennials I purchased & planted 2 weeks after planting these, these plants are really tiny and slow to root. Way too expensive for this. Customer Service told me to wait till next year for improvements. You can pick out plants yourself and design your own bed much cheaper and with faster and more productive results."
"The plants arrived in beautiful condition. Excellent packaging. So far, all of them are doing well."
"I have always purchased plants to fill gaps without taking mature size, color and placement into consideration. This pre-planned garden has been an education on design. The attached photo shows progress after 60 days. I had to keep the plants in the greenhouse for a month while waiting for the frozen ground to thaw"
"I had such high hopes for this. The planting instructions and layout is really easy to follow and the images on the site are beautiful. I followed the planting guide explicitly, from prepping the planting soil to planting and care. Only 8 of the 19 plants I received made it through winter. And those eight that survived look really sad and anemic now. Just didn't meet expectations in any way."
"The plants all arrived after maybe 4 or 5 days in transit, but they were packed so perfectly. Each one was healthy, watered and ready to go into the ground. I let them rest on the patio for a couple of days, to get them used to the sun and dryness of NM. They're all in the garden now and looking great. I'm very optimistic for a lovely garden this year. Thanks so much for all the care you show in shipping these plants!"
"I have never done a pre-planned garden or perineal garden. This made it easy, the map was very helpful. My plants are growing wonderfully! I had issues with the post office and the company fixed things right away! I am very happy with my purchase!"
"These are the healthiest plants I've ever ordered on line. Great size and healthy! I especially loved explicit instructions on the size of area to be covered and planting map. Watching them grow and thrive now."
"I have NOTHING bad to say! The only complaint I have is about US! We planted a bit too close together! Rookie mistake! VERY forgiving plants!"
"So far every plant is showing great vigor. I am very pleased. With summer coming here in Tucson I hope the plants can make it through the heat and remain healthy. Keeping my fingers crossed."
Exclusive to High Country Gardens, our Jumbo Waterwise Pre-Planned Garden is the original “garden in a box” designed by Julia Berman to make waterwise gardening easy for everyone. No landscape design experience is needed to grow this beautiful grouping of long blooming, drought-tolerant flowers and foliage plants. This is the perfect solution for that space calling for a colorful planting.
For best results, we recommend planting with Yum Yum Mix and Superthrive Vitamin/Hormone Plant Growth Stimulant; In hot desert climates, this garden will perform best in morning sun/afternoon shade.
If you need to fill a larger space in your landscape, plant our Extra Jumbo Waterwise Pre-Planned Garden.
This garden is not recommended for coastal areas of California, Oregon, and Washington where the Valerian (Centranthus) can behave aggressively. Order our Jumbo Waterwise Pre-Planned Garden For The West Coast instead.
