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.

Mystery Tree ID

7 years ago

I've been trying to ID this tree on my friend's land for ages and I'm tapping you all for help! It's happily growing in sun next to a lake. Maybe 20 to 30 feet high; white bark with dark lenticels, almost Aspen like except the lenticels are regularly spaced streaks in the bark rather than aspen "eyes". Picture of leaves below. Pale silvery white underneath. Growing in the Southeast.
