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.

thuja plicata

10 years ago
A bit late, I know, but which variety of thuja plicata are they? Am looking for one that remains narrow, and this type looks like it could suit. Thanks!

    What you see in the background is Thuja occidentalis Elegantissima. They have been pruned to stay that narrow. Green Giants are narrower by nature, but get 3 times as big.
