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.

native perennials for shade until 2pm, then western sun

9 years ago

My yard faces west and is surrounded on the east side by large trees that make shade until about 2pm in the summer, then it's western sun over there. I know goldenrod and asters can take this. Any other suggestions, esp. for pollinator plants?
