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.

My First Dahlia!

11 years ago

In 15+ years of gardening I've never kept one dahlia alive - until now. And it's one the grower warned me NOT to grow this far south - 'York & Lancaster'. In Spring it was crushed underneath a felled tree limb. I was determined NOT to let it die. This is the result:

Each flower is different from the one before it - on the same plant!
