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.

Lightly Fertilize New Divisions?

15 years ago

I'm transplanting some new hosta divisions. Is it a good idea to feed them to help prepare for spring growth? I have several new plantings that I've made since August. Fertilize them, too....or is it not a good idea to encourage growth at this late date?
