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.

Books on Foliage Plants?

20 years ago

Any recommendations? I'd like to find something that offers more than the usual "use well-drained mix." In depth listings....ph preferences, fert. oddities, soft water/vs. tap...etc.

Any titles?
