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.

what to do with bare roots?

17 years ago

My friend sent me some hostas that she had in pots. She shook the soil off of them and shipped the roots to me. I am unsure what to do with them this time of year. Should I pot them up and put them outside with the others I already have in pots? Should I water them? Thanks, Raye
