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.

Looking for suggestions for mailbox flower garden

17 years ago

I'm starting a flower garden around my mailbox at the edge of the road. Can anyone suggest any plants that do well near the edge of the road with road salt, etc. ?

Thanks!
