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.

Today's blooms

19 years ago

I have absolutely no luck growing my cacti in full sun in the Sacramento area. It doesn't matter if they're in containers or in the ground; they get shriveled, sunburned or just plain begin looking ugly.

Here are a few that were blooming today that are grown in dappled shade...

Turbinicarpus lophophoroides

Gymnocalycium baldianum
