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.

Cold Weather FINALLY gone, Streakers (Hosta).

6 years ago
last modified: 6 years ago



It looks like the cold weather (and WIND) and risk of frost has finally passed! We had some early risers that froze and turned to mush. Then the last few days there were risk of frost......Friday I covered a bunch.......and there was ice in spots in the morning......but they did ok thankfully. Here are 3 streakers I like a lot....'Oome' (biggest, top right), 'Dorset Clown', bottom, and my streaky 'Earth Angel' I found and isolated a few years back (top left).
