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.

7 years ago

Can someone help me identify this shrub that’s in this planter? Would like to do something similar. Thanks.

    An upright juniper of some type. Most will get much too large in time to remain in a smallish container. And not great for a shaded porch - junipers are full sun plants.
