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.

Shade or not?

18 years ago

I heard recently from someone that full shade in Phoenix is not really full shade; it's more like indirect light or something like that. Is that true?


Due to space constraints, I moved my new heliconias from just morning sun to shade now but definitely bright. Should they be OK? Thanks.
