Description: Anaheim's Waterwise Demonstration Garden which borders the Amtrak Anaheim Station next to the Edison International Field of Anaheim, lends identity and prominence to the station while demonstrating to visitors water-efficient landscaping techniques. Upon viewing the garden, it becomes evident that water-efficient landscaping and irrigation techniques can produce a luxurious and abundant landscape.

Features: Anaheim's Waterwise Demonstration Garden features a covered patio, informative kiosks, plant ID signs, benches, 33 plant species, examples of appropriate mulch, use of flagstone as a hardscape, and water-efficient irrigation. At a ceremony held on September 10, 1998, Anaheim's Waterwise Garden was officially dedicated in honor of Sally White in recognition of her service and dedication to the beautification of the Anaheim community. Sally passed away in early 2001, but the garden will live on in her memory.
