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.

Questions about growing leeks and chives in Phoenix

12 years ago

I've read that aphids really hate leeks and chives (as well as onions and garlic.) It's easy to plant those in my container garden or ground-garden area, but what about around my young fruit trees, which get irrigated? They are getting little holes in their leaves, which could be caused by a kind of caterpillar or could be caused by aphids.
