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.

Dianthus

16 years ago

I live in Central North Carolina. I purchased several Dianthus at my Lowe's Home Improvement store. Some pink,salmon and pink and white Dianthus. they are blooming this May and were very pretty. The butterflies love them. Now they need deadheading. How far down the stem do I cut to deadhead? I understand they will bloom again.Please help. Thank you.
