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.

my tropical garden this year

23 years ago

Hi everyone. Last year was my first for a tropical garden...and I just loved it! This year...things are not growing as fast, due to the cold,rainy,cloudy weather we been having.

My bananas,cannas, and castor beans...are barely growing.

Hopefully, they will take off soon!
