Keep up the good work Hutt Valley - two weeks running. Can a Wellington or Porirua suburb take out the win this week?

Our top #loveeverydrop water saving tip for the week is to group plants in your garden into high or low water users, you can then design a watering pattern that is better for your plants and one that will also reduce the amount of water wastage.
