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.

Rain Lilies

10 years ago
last modified: 10 years ago

Mine are blooming early this year...probably because I've been watering their area. In trying to determine their exact name, I found this essay. Especially like his discussion about planting (or not) natives and heirlooms, and those plants we like because they do well for us (and eventually become "our" heirlooms).
