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.

5-1-1 or Gritty Mix

10 years ago
last modified: 10 years ago

Which is better as a general-purpose mix for a variety of potted plants?

I have geraniums, a lavender, succulents, a sego palm, a camellia, a flowering plum, a crape myrtle, a dwarf orange, star jasmines, begonias, etc.
