> The City of Moscow established the Wisescape concept in 2008 to promote
> water-efficient landscaping on the Palouse. The concepts include landscape
> design aesthetics, reduction of resource use, soil enhancements, and plant
> selection.  Moscow residents may nominate themselves, or be nominated by
> neighbors, businesses, developers, the City, etc. The award recognizes
> individuals who set examples for landscape aesthetics and resource
> conservation. Nominations for 2012 are due by September 15, 2012.
>
> Wisescape Awards are selected from businesses and residences that set
> examples of attractive, water-conserving use of outdoor space. The intent
> is not based on competition or to reward the most lavish or expensive
> projects, but rather to acknowledge people's creative efforts, however
> modest, and provide inspiration to others. Not all of the Wisescape
> Guidelines need to be fulfilled; a combination of the guidelines is
> preferred.
