Our construction takes nature's lead in creating a garden-like environment to catch, drain, and filter excess runoff.Ī conventional man-made stormwater detention basin consists of a shallow water basin lined with riprap and surrounded by side slopes covered with turf grass. The difference between a man-made stormwater retention basin and a naturalized basin designed by Tallgrass is extraordinary. The Benefits of Creating Naturalized Stormwater Detention Basins A strategically planned garden will look so beautiful, no one will need know how necessary and functional it is. It will perfectly blend with your existing site while serving all of the practical needs of water filtration and infiltration. We can create a native rain garden design that subtly integrates into your landscape. Our rain garden construction is top of the line.

Let our team of experts create and integrate a natural filtration system into your landscape. This helps to prevent erosion that can be caused by too much rainwater. Rain gardens are typically located close to the source of stormwater runoff to help slow down stormwater as it travels downhill. Rain Gardens are built to collect stormwater runoff and filter it through the ground which will prevent the stormwater from polluting the rivers or contributing to floods. What are Rain Gardens?Ī rain garden design is a garden which is designed to be able to withstand extreme amounts of nutrients and moisture. Whether your concerns are to reduce site maintenance and storm water runoff or to simply attract more birds and butterflies to your garden, the choice of including native plants in your construction makes for a wise investment in your landscape and nature. Rain gardens, native plant beds, prairies, and savannas provide for a beautiful, hardy, and drought-tolerant landscape. When compared to turf grass, these pollutant filtering systems can help 30-40% more rainwater drain into the soil. The deep roots of the native plants help the water soak into the lime soil instead of spreading across the surface and flooding out your yard. Simply stated, a detention basin design, or a rain garden design is a shallow depression filled with native plants where you can direct rain water. Rain gardens can have a huge positive impact upon the health of your watershed, and they are easy to install.
