I am trying to find some information about making gardens that help catch rainwater and slow down the run-off around hard landscaping. There was an article in the Saturday Guardian magazine in the spring or early summer this year, which I chucked into the recycling without saving the article or remembering the term that they used to describe the style/method.
Can any MN gardeners help me out with the terminology or any useful websites? We are hoping to overhaul our front garden and want to offset the driveway with some helpful planting and I thought that it might be interesting reading. I am drawing a blank, and hope that the collective wisdom of MN could help!
