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.

New Bug Book

20 years ago

I'm the author of a new bug book, INSECTS, PESTS AND DISEASES OF THE AFRICAN VIOLET.

276 pages of text and black and white illustrations and pictures of bugs and diseases.

Features 24 color pages of African violets (no bugs)

The book offers solutions to problems with plants in the gesneriad family using natural control, biological control or chemical control.

I am 3/4 finished with a manuscript to be called "Simply Gesneriads". Problem is finding a publisher and distributor. Any hints?

Nancy
