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.

Alyssum or Carpet Phlox along retaining wall?

18 years ago

Please see my original post on the perennials forum. I'm posting on both since Alyssum isn't a perennial, but I am considering it since it is known to self seed.

Looking for feedback since I've planted neither of these.

Thanks
