Description
Our FireSmart Collection for Zone 1, the Immediate Zone of your yard, is designed to help you establish an ember-resistant defensible space within the first 5 feet of your home. This collection includes a variety of drought-resistant low-growing groundcovers and succulents that were selected for their high moisture content and mat-forming growth habit. Blooming groundcovers add pops of color throughout the season, blending with evergreen succulents to form a tapestry of color and texture.
Our FireSmart Collection – Zone 1 includes 9 plants, covering approximately 14 square feet when planted together:
- 2X Red Mountain® Flame Ice Plant
- 2X Turkish Veronica
- 2X Partridge Feather (Tanacetum)
- 1X Silver Carpet Lamb’s Ear
- 1X Tushar Bluemat Penstemon
- 1X Cobweb Hens and Chicks
Defensible space is a concept for FireSmart landscaping that involves creating a buffer zone around your property to help slow or stop the spread of fire. This space is divided into three main zones determined by the distance from a structure. High Country Gardens has developed a plant collection for each zone, to easily turn your yard into a more fire-resilient landscape.
• For Zone 1 – Immediate Zone (0-5 feet), plant, FireSmart Collection – Zone 1
• For Zone 2 – Intermediate Zone (5-30 feet), plant FireSmart Collection – Zone 2
• For Zone 3 – Extended Zone (30-100 feet), plant FireSmart Collection – Zone 3
Be sure to check local ordinances for defensible space requirements in your region.
