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.

Good bonsai scissors?

9 years ago

I have a friend who has creeping fig on the front of his house and he spends hours every week up on a ladder trimming it to keep it looking perfect.

I'd like to give him some better scissors for this (he's using secateurs right now, which seems kind of silly for trimming a leaf here, a sprig there), so what do you all recommend? Bonsai scissors, floral shears, what?
