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.

New Citrus Trees

19 years ago

My brother and I just purchased 4 citrus trees for our back yard. Ive read that they are not to adaptive to clay soil unless there are additives to help soften the clay to allow the roots to grow. If these additives are added to the clay soil mixture, will the trees still have a good chance of being healthy over time. I see there are a lot of products out there and the nursery that we purchased them from has stuff for the clay soil. Just looking for opinions. We researched ever thing before we bought and thought that they would be a good choice for an Arizona back yard.

Thanks for any input .....

Tony
