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.

Standards (standard trees)

23 years ago

Any suggestions as to what tropicals (Zone 10+) could be trained into standards, preferably flowering ones, which don't need staking? Also, how many years would this take? Thanks
