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.

1900s garden

17 years ago

I have a 1900s house and am interested in planting a period garden. So much of what I read about period gardens predate this time. I am interested in:

books

period gardens that exist from the 1900s--either NE, Atlantic seaboard or SE

heirloom plant companies from which I might order

Thanking members in advance,

MartyLan
