gardens are designed to collect stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces,
such as roofs, streets, driveways, patios, parking lots, or waterlogged yards.
The runoff is then allowed to seep back into the ground slowly, preventing it
from reaching local waterways. Rain gardens are planted with tough plants that
thrive during brief periods of inundation and drought, providing attractive
habitats for pollinators and other wildlife.
