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.

6 years ago
last modified: 6 years ago

This was found growing on the water's edge along a river. It has tiny, ~1/8" lavender flowers growing on spikes on long stems. What is it?

    ...or the native Texas Vervain, Verbena halei.
