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.

Hydrangeas and Hostas

16 years ago

Lurker here, but this year my hydrangeas are looking kind of pretty mixed in with my hostas so I wanted to show off.

I like their pink flowers mixed in with the purple flowers of the hostas. I think they look nice considering when I got them they were mostly dead things I got for next to nothing.

I think I'm getting the hydragea bug, today I bought some roottone so I can try to increase the number of my hydrangeas.

    They're a perfect pair. At least for those of use that are dominated by shade.

    I love your blue Hostas, they've always been my favorites.
