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.

What kind of flower is this.

9 years ago
I saw this flower in a yard and asked the gentleman what it was. He didn't speak English but he did dig one up for me

    It looks like a plant celosia, and is commonly known cockscomb.

    Pretty flower. Kinda strange that you posted this in Before & After, though.

    Last fall I was given a bouquet with those flowers on it, and you can actually let them dry out and they still keep their fuzziness and look great! They do however shed a ton of black seeds in the drying process but still just a fun fact for you. I'm sorry I don't know the flowers name though. :(
