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.

moss, friend or foe?

12 years ago

I read there are 1000's of different mosses. This moss is leftover from a recent repot. Is there any value or benefit to re-use? Or is it a safe harbor for some nasty pests?
