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.

Avocado Tree Attacked

12 years ago

Hi. This is my first post, and I have a question about the Avocado tree I have been growing for the better part of the year. It has been doing so well, lots of leaves, and I pruned the top leaves as per recommendations in garden articles. However, when I wasn't looking today, my 2 year old decided to rip every leaf off of it. I am not an emotional person by any means, but this had me in tears! Do you think it will survive? What should I do to help it?
