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.

Transplanting violets

11 years ago

I have violets volunteering all over my yard and was wondering, can I transplant them to a better area and use them as ground cover? I am assuming they are wild as they are just popping up everywhere, however I have different colors. Dark purple, white, with with soft purple stripes and white with a purple blushed throat.
