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.

Replacement for Swedish Aspen

10 years ago

I had 3 Swedish Aspen which were removed due to borers/leaf disease. I hated the roots and suckers too. Was planning to replace with the newer Parkland Pillar Birch, but have read they may also be susceptible to borers and have long traveling roots. Anyone familiar with the birch? Any suggestions for similar sized trees, any columnar pine or spruce that might work? Zone 3
