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.

Not Tiger Grass but what?

18 years ago

I believe the photo is mislabeled. It certainly isn't the Tiger Grass (Thysanolaena maxima) I know, but what is it?

I thought it might be a Cortaderia of some kind but the plumes look a bit thin. It's beautiful and I'd love to know what it is. Anyone have any ideas?
