Master Rain Gardener - Self Paced Class
I am looking to put a rain garden in my front lawn. The water would come from the front half of the roof and feed into the garden through the downspout. There are no issues with water in the basement or anything like that. I’ve attached a couple photos to show the location. Any input is welcome!

Homework #3/4:
Photo 1 is my full design with relevant locations of house, driveways, and sidewalks. 1 excel square is equal to 1 foot. Desired Plant list as well, garden will get part to full sun. Drainage comes from upper left gray squares, direclty from the downspout into a short trench to the garden.
Photo 2 is a plot of bloom times to ensure pollinators have food as much as possible.

Rain Garden complete!
With the big storm the other night we were able to watch how the garden filled up with water and make some slight adjustments to plant locations. We also added a few extra plants: black eyed susans, blue flag iris, obedient plant, monkey flower, and joe pye. Very excited to watch it grow over the coming months!
