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.

Big Daddy's Day (second try)

16 years ago

Big Daddy is one of my favorites, and this is his day. As you can see from the pic, this one is a mature plant and it stays a wonderful blue all season. It grows under an old apple tree, perhaps not the best location since the cupped leaves collect debris, but the dappled shade seems to suit him.
