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.

Sun requirements for snowdrop

2 years ago

This is my first attempt at growing snowdrops. i bought a bunch of bulbs and want to plant them under a tree that is an evergreen so the area gets dappled shade at best. I thought they would be ok in shade since they seem to thrive in woodlands but i am getting conflicting information online. most sources say to plant them in full sun to partial shade. Please help me decide where to plant them!
