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.

cutting back flowers on a young grass plant

18 years ago

I have several young grass plants (one gallon)do you think that if I cut back the flowers now, will the plant try to produce more flowers or put the extra energy into root growth, for a larger plant next year ??? Randy
