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.

      Morning glories make profuse amounts of seed.....plants that spread by runners--mint for example may be somewhat inhibited by planting in its container.

      Hard to see....perhaps wisteria.

      Lovely, but not very water wise for a drought prone area.
