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.

Banana question

10 years ago
last modified: 10 years ago

This winter, I piled about a foot of leaves around the bottom of the banana plant. I guess I should remove those now, or at least pull them back from the trunk?

ETA: Well, scratch that. Just saw it's going down to 35 on Monday night. Mother Nature fooled me again!
