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.

Cutting back Alyssum saxatile

19 years ago

My A. saxatile (basket of gold) is done blooming and looks really ratty. Has anyone tried cutting it back? Will it grow new leaves or would it kill it? Hope someone knows, it looks extra ugly right now.
