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.

American Lady Host Plants

5 years ago

Hi All, I am wondering what is the best hostplant for them that can be grown indoors? Normally I would use Pearly Everlasting, but I am leaning on Icicle Plant or Licorice Plant any ideas would be great!
