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.

From the hill looking down

12 years ago

I haven't posted for awhile as some of you may already be familiar with my gardens. This year the growth has been phenomenal and I realize I may have to remove and/or cut back limbs to allow room. However, since the property is up for sale I hesitate to do anything and let the new owners deal with the overgrowth. But no one is offering to take over and I may just have to deal with the crowded trees and shrubs. Meanwhile, I'm enjoying the views from above and have learned a lesson and the next time I have the opportunity to create a conifer garden I'll spread the trees further apart. It's amazing how much growth can happen in just a few years. I also welcome anyone visiting our area to stop by and take a look.
