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.

tree moss

14 years ago

We just cut an old tree down. It has moss and lichens growing on the bark on the backside so I peeled some of it off. How can I keep it growing? I tried putting a few pieces on potting soil last year and they molded?
