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.

Forbidden love and secret hate

14 years ago

What does everyone else seem to love that you hate?

What does everyone else hate that you secretly love?

I can't stand stella d'oro day lilies or moonbeam coreopsis. Nandina and oleander are totally boring to me.

Violets and weedy grew-by-themselves morning glories make me happy (except during the few hours it takes to remove all of the dead vines from the fence.)
