BIORETENTION / RAINGARDEN A raingarden is a shallow, constructed ground depression that is planted with deep-rooted native plants & grasses. It is located in your landscape to receive runoff from hard surfaces such as a roof, a sidewalk and a driveway. Rain gardens installed with SOIL SUPPLY Rain Garden Mixture slows down the rush of water from these hard surfaces, holds the water for a short period of time and allows it to naturally infiltrate into the ground providing plants and grasses with much needed natural clean rainwater. A raingarden can be thought of as a water quality system because it filters the runoff from roofs and lawns and recharges groundwater. SOIL SUPPLY'S Proprietary Raingarden Mixture: Careful attention is needed to ensure the delicate and proper mixture of sands, fines and other materials for the proper drainage of water. Without it, the raingarden will fail and not drain properly, which will result in a mess and be a very costly removal/ redo. SOIL SUPPLY is one of the very few companies certified that can offer this proper mixture for raingardens. A raingarden also conserves municipal water resources by reducing the need for irrigation! Raingardens are a beautiful and colorful way for homeowners, businesses and municipalities to help ease storm water problems. There is a growing trend by municipalities and homeowners to incorporate natural processes to help relieve flooding and pollution. |
