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.

Freezing Pollen for next spring.

17 years ago

I started collecting my rose blooms for next years pollen. I store the pollen in plastic spice containers and put them in the freezer til spring. I did this last year and used some on crosses that produce nice big hips.

The spice containers work pretty well, they are made to keep spices dry so they keep the pollen dry also.

Is anyone else doing this?
