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.

Favorite winter annual flowers?

12 years ago

I'm looking for some options for a flower bed around my mailbox, around 75 square feet. Obviously pansies come to mind, but I'm looking for other suggestions. What do you plant for color in the cooler months?
