My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

How was this path established?

12 years ago
It looks like it could be mulch or possibly gathered dead leaves from a previous season? It looks like the bench is sitting on a concrete pad...is that the case? I love these plants, but the hardscape is so vital to setting them off to advantage!

    Hi Heidi - Thanks! The bench is on a small flagstone patio that is dry set. The path is small bark chips and it does get debris in it every season due to the large native trees, so the bark needs refreshing every once in a while.
