New stylish rain barrels that save the environment
Gerry Fung Water conservation is extremely important during the summer months, when hot and humid weather conditions often lead to shortages in water supply. To conserve water, rain barrels can be used to collect rain water. This allows you to recycle rain water to water you backyard, instead of wasting precious drinking water.  However, did you know that you can decorate your backyard AND help save the environment at the same time? We all know that you should save water. However, have you noticed that all the rain barrels that you get from the city are eyesores? City-issued rain barrels can cause irreparable damage to your property value! What you're looking for is a well-designed and nicely colored rain barrel that will enhance your backyard, instead of diminishing it. One example of a well-designed rain barrel is Algreen's Cascata rain barrel. Its smooth contours make for a stylish choice, and its earth-tone complexion renders it color-neutral; it's able to blend into any backyard landscape. This rain barrel goes great with both brick and stucco, offering both style and elegance. The Cascata holds 65 gallons of water- enough to water your garden and your lawn! The Cascata rain barrel has a corrosion proof screen guard, and comes with a unique and easily removable crown planter on the top - double walled for extra strength and durability. There is an overflow valve, a hook for hanging the garden hose oh, and an elbow connector to connect to the 6" Garden Hose with the shut-off valve. It also comes with a tap at its base, which allows you to fill watering buckets, and all the fittings that allow you to hook several together in series, for those extra-large lawns. This summer, invest in a Cascata http://www.gardensupermart.com/store/c336046p16913839.2.html. Click here to view more articles by Gerry Fung. Reprinted with Permission from IdeaMarketers.com
