Product Overview Let It Rain Garden - This picture is of a one of our Let It Rain Gardens three months after installation. Product Details Our Let It Rain Garden is composed of all native floodplain species that can tolerate a wide range of soil moistures. Rain garden soil moistures can vary widely from soaked or submerged during wet periods to very dry in the summer or in drought conditions. These native floodplain species have adapted to these conditions over thousands of year and once established perform superbly in rain gardens. Garden packages are available for pickup at the nursery or can be shipped. Shipments are made only on Mondays and Tuesdays to minimize the chance of them spending the weekend in a hot truck or warehouse.
