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.

What is your favorite Rock Garden Plant?

18 years ago

I started a rock garden on a slope a few years ago and love adding new plants to it. One of my favorites is Snowcap Rockcress because it is the first to bloom in my rock garden and it tells me spring is finally here!!! Also, it seems to pop up in different places in the rock garden each year so it continues to change and develop. It's in full bloom right now!!!

What's your favorite?

    My favorite are the pulmonarias. They are located in the shadier part of my rock garden on a slope. I love their flowers, leaves, and neat tidy habit :)

    My "favorite" changes by the year and by the season. Right now it is Pulsatilla turczaninovii, a species of Pasque flower.
