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.

a not so hardy perennial

17 years ago

I was surprised to see the new growth on my painted daisies all black after the latest cold spell.

I've always assumed perennials could handle a few degrees of freezing. I guess there's a point when it's too cold.

Anyone else have new growth that suffered?
