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.

black mondo grass companions

23 years ago

I have a large patch black mondo grass in between cherry laurels on the front of my house. Don't think there is enough contrast to make them standout. I'm thinkink about relocating them--maybe next to a lighter green hosta cultivar. Any ideas or neat combos with this plant would be greatly appreciated!
