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.

Dig Bulbs Now and Store for Summer

15 years ago

Somewhat new to working with bulbs - moved to Central Virginia from Texas.

I have all these wonderful bulbs blooming that I need to move. I am very tempted to dig them up now because I know where they are and then store them in the basement until fall to replant them in their new homes. Thoughts?
