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.

Salvia

A plant to write home about

19 years ago

I thought it was time for me to show something , especially for those of you who suffered with me through my first year of germinating salvias , there were success and failure but surprises too at least for me . I wont bore you with all but one in particular that Im very proud of. I really didnt know what to expect , but was really surprised with this one.

Here is one of my lady in red before it bloomed
