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.

    Hi Andrew,

    The plants included in this riverbed are; Kalanchoe luciae, Senecio mandraliscae, Senecio vitalis, Echeveria 'Afterglow', Phormium 'Black Adder' and toward the top of the picture is Hesperaloe parviflora. These are all drought tolerant plants.

    Thanks for your question!
