Xeriscape Demonstration Garden

The Xeriscape Demonstration Garden surrounds the Glendale Main Library (5959 W. Brown St.). The award-winning garden is a living example of the diversity and abundant amount of low-water-use plants available for use in planning a lush and inviting garden.


Please take this opportunity to learn more about low-water-use plants and how you can do your part to conserve water. The garden is free and open to the public from dawn to dusk.
