SMARTEST YARD OF THE WEEK CONTEST


Winner: James and Beverly Fogleman

The Fogleman's have taken advantage of their post oak shaded lot by incorporating native and adaptive plants that are perennial, drought tolerant, and shade friendly. The result is an aesthetically pleasing and low maintenance landscape that blooms during the hottest months of the summer and attracts local birds and wildlife. Plants that can be found in the Fogleman Smart Yard include: Lantana, Salvia Greggi, Cedar Sedge, American Beautyberry, Inland Seaoats, Turk's Cap, herbs, and many more. Congratulations to the Fogleman's for having this week's Smart Yard!
 

Smartest Yard is an event to recognize Arlington residents who have incorporated environmentally friendly yard management and design into a "Smart Yard" using the design concepts from Texas SmartScape™ (visit www.txsmartscape.com) and similar sources. This event is only open to residences.

For more information call Dustan Compton at 817-459-6628 or by email to Dustan.Compton@arlingtontx.gov

The "Smartest Yard" contest is sponsored by the City of Arlington in partnership with UTA, in support of NCTCOG's regional efforts to promote Texas SmartScape.
