The three-acre Water Conservation Garden is the largest cultivated garden located inside Red Butte Garden and Arboretum. Officially opened in May 2017, it contains a variety of themed gardens including Desert Harvest, Groundcover Tapestry, Flowering Shrub Hillside, and Adaptive Beauty gardens, all which demonstrate various low-water gardening techniques and planting schemes. The Water Conservation Garden’s mission is to demonstrate Red Butte Garden and Arboretum's commitment to water conservation and low input gardening. The Garden also aims to act as a state-wide leader in native plant horticulture, water-wise landscaping and resource-conscious gardening.
