My house is not finished yet. Possibly by next week. We plan to start moving some things in this weekend if the locks are on the doors. The edge pieces of the granite bumped up the cost. I think the mason said the corners were $11.00 each. He searched for the largest ones he could find. The other option was to have the mason cut the stone for corners. Then you add the labor cost so it would probably equal. The basic stone price was close to the Owens Corning price. I believe the price for the chimney and interior wall for wood stove came to $7,000. including labor which was a bit higher than our contractor expected. This was the first time the mason had used this product and he was very pleased with the results. He is working with a contractor who builds log homes and he stated he would offer this product. We are all happy with this project.

Definitely looks like a "dry stack" stone veneer to me. (Real stone veneer and NOT a "cultured" stone product.) Hard to tell the color tho because, on my monitor the overall picture looks pretty bluish - including those white flowers. So, I'm guessing the stone is really a lot "warmer" overall than it looks on my monitor. With a real veneer product, the exact look you get is going to depend on the exact mix of pieces of stone you receive. I wouldn't worry too much about the manufacturer. Lowe's carries several colors of dry stack stone veneer. You might see if one of these - or maybe even a mixture of 2 or 3 of them - would give you the look you want.

What I would suggest is that you drive around your town/city and look for houses with stone that you like. Stop and ask the homeowners if they have the name or where they got it. Compliment their taste and home and most people will be happy to share details. Let them know if your house isn't that close ... some people don't want a copy of their house right on the same street! Dress nicely. If you have one, bring a small baby/child with you ... it makes people less nervous!

Like orchard apple trees these require cross pollination to fruit well. And only specific other kinds are cross-compatible with any given variety. Plus this being a seedling rather than a clone of a named cultivar you won't be able to acquire a known compatible variety to interact with it later - if there are fruiting avocado trees around you there you will just have to hope this new introduction to the group will happen to be able to play with them. If instead your seedling will end up being the only one in the vicinity it is possible you will not ever see much production.
