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.

WANTED: Prickly pear cactus

17 years ago

I am making a rock garden and in zone 5 its a bit hard to find cacti and succulents that can withstand the winters here. But I have been informed that prickly pear cactus can so now I am trying to find a couple. I have 2 Epies and a nice flute jade for trade.
