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.

Succulent groundcover in shade

11 years ago

My flowerbeds are full of agave and other cacti. I'm looking for a groundcover to plant under some elm trees where it will be in full shade. I was hoping to find a succulent that would work and carry out the desert plant theme. I am located in zone 8b near Waco, Tx. Anyone have any suggestions. Thanks.
