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.

Hardy groundcover

16 years ago

I need a hardy ground cover that will do well in the direct sun with poor soil. I have already tried the freeway daisy, but it became too vine like. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thank you!
