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.

Milkweed

Wild A variegata milkweed breaking ground!

12 years ago

Even though we've had a very cold winter here in Central Arkansas, the native 'Red Ring' milkweed I transplanted (with permission) several years ago is beginning to push up new growth. Swamp and common are usually the first to pop up here so really surprised. No signs of other milkweed.

Anyone else seeing native milkweed?

We're forecast to get down to 28 degrees Tuesday night. I do hope that is the last of the cold weather for this year.

Mary
