Not all plants need constant watering to thrive. In the Low-Water Gardening Contest, we want to see what plants you can grow with minimal amounts of water. Share your gardening systems, plant tips, and other projects that make your low-water garden unique.

Three winners will win an AeroGarden Harvest Touch gardening system and runners-up will win an Instructables prize pack including a robot T-shirt. Save water and grow a garden you can be proud of this summer!
