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.

Tree/Shrub ID Request

I removed a Kousa dogwood Satomi Red that was planted next to this last Fall. It wasn't growing then I thought I got all the roots..do you think it may be coming from some of the root stock I missed when I dug the Satomi up? Thanks! It's about 2' tall and in full sun--what there is of it.

    Since it appeared adjacent to where the Satomi was planted, chances are very good it is a shoot arising from something left behind with the old root system. The leaf texture looks a little too pronounced to be one of the shrub dogwoods - I think it likely to be a kousa or whatever root stock the kousa might have been grafted to (if it was grafted at all).
