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.

Oak and Fig trees

17 years ago

I just moved onto 100 acres it is mostly cleared. It can get very windy I also would like some shade. Was wondering if anyone could tell me which trees are best to use Fig Oak or both and other pretty trees too. I am putting an old Queenslander onto it and it has a long drive way up to the hill, i would like some trees lineing the drive also, any ideas???

Cheers!
