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.

trying to remember an annual name...

16 years ago

While visiting a friend last night, we spied some flowers in the neighbors yard and I will swear that they were what I used to call a 'false poinsettia'. I cannot recall the botanical name of the plant, only that it is an annual and seed was always available for it in the spring catalogs. Am I crazy? : ) google search shows nothing, so I thought I would tap into a real resource and see if any of you know of this plant too. Thanks!
