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.

Root/Stem planting

18 years ago

Hi!

Back in June I purchased few of the "root/stalk" boxes at HomeDepot. I still don't have any growth! (I know it's only been 2 months, but I thought I would at least get some leaves by now!)...

Should I give up on these? How has your luck been with the whole "stalk" planting thing? I'm a new gardener, so any help you can provide would be awesome! I also got frustrated and went and bought an endless summer plant, which is doing OK and has a few buds and one flower on it. It was in the "half off" section, so I know it's not perfect and I have high hopes for next year. :)
