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.

Are these foxgloves?

6 years ago

I've encountered these a couple times, growing under trees in Brooklyn. Are these foxgloves? They are smaller and a little shorter than the onesI am used to. Also, seem to be blooming late summer/early fall. I love the color and would love to add to my garden.

    No. They’re Physostegia, aka Obedient Plant.
