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.

gardenias?

21 years ago

Alright everyone, I need a little help with some gardenias. I have 2 large concrete 2Wx3H planters on the far south side of our house on a concrete patio. Needed something evergreen, approx. 4ft(at the highest), preferably dense specimen as our den/breakfast room windows open up to this patio. Had finally decided on gardenias, likely August Beauty until I checked the forums and heard all the problems and maintenance everyone seems to have with gardenias in general. I would really appreciate any advice/suggestions
