Water-wise plants can keep your garden blooming, even during drought restrictions! 🌼

This month’s PlantSelect highlight is the Tennessee Purple Coneflower. This purple perennial not only supports pollinators but also thrives in sunny spaces and needs little water once established, making it a great addition to water-wise landscapes.

Add color to your yard while staying mindful of your water use. Visit plantselect.org to get more planting inspiration.

Did you find a door tag at your home — maybe one with a toilet on it? 🚽
Or receive a notice from our Meter Shop? Here’s what to do next:

🚽 Toilet dye-tablet hanger
This means we’re helping you check for one of the most common (and sneakiest) indoor leaks. A leaking toilet can waste up to 200 gallons of water per day.
Follow the directions on the hanger—if color shows up in the bowl, you likely have a leak that needs repair.

💧 Meter Shop notice
Our team observed higher-than-normal water use or signs of a possible leak at your property. Keep in mind: homeowners are responsible for leaks between the meter and the building. If the leak is outside this area—such as in the public water main or service line on the street—please contact the City of Thornton's Water Utility for assistance.

🖥️Monitor your daily water use and set up leak alerts at Thornton.WaterSmart.com.
Need help? Start with our leak guide: bit.ly/checkingleaks

Toilets and irrigation systems are the most common sources of household leaks—so check those first!
