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.

Evergreen shrubs for SE Georgia

20 years ago

I'm trying to come up with ideas for shrubs to plant around the foundation of our house. North and south sides of the house, no shade from other trees. So far we just have two bottle brush shrubs on the north that are doing well. Looking for low maintenance and preferably evergreens. We already have a lot of azaleas in the front and knockout roses.

Also, does anyone know of any good garden centers in the Kingsland/St. Mary's, GA area? Lowes and Home Depot in Yulee,FL are OK but don't have much variety. Amelia Island Garden Center is way over priced. Am willing to drive to Jacksonville,FL if necessary.
