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.

Advice for backyard zone 8

4 years ago
last modified: 4 years ago

I had 14 leyland cypress trees removed yesterday. Wished I didn't have to. We had several fall already. Decided to remove the remaining 14. The 1st picture is what my backyard looks like now after tree removal. The 2nd picture is what I plan to plant in its place. The 3rd picture is the ligustrum recurvifolium that I plan to pick up from my local nursery. I'm planning on ligustrum hedge, Azalea Encore flowers flowers and some type of small Evergreen Bush. Anyone have any input? I'd appreciate it !
