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.

1950's annuals

18 years ago

I'm currently involved in the restoration of a historic garden. Currently I'm trying to locate the names of varieties of pink Petunias and French Marigolds that were available around 1955. If anyone knows of a suitable reference to obtain this information, I would appreciate hearing from you. Thank you! Gwen
