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.

Hardy ginger relative?

Possibly invasive? Zone 7 part shade

    I agree with kimmq comment re. the plant in the duplicate post on the Weeds forum http://forums.gardenweb.com/discussions/4880483/invasive-weed?, that knowing OP's location could help with proper identification first. Zone alone is not enough.
