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.

Watermelon and Cantaloupe

I realize that watermelon isn't technically a "melon", but it is in the same family as the cantaloupe. Will they cross-pollinate? Do plants in the same family cross-pollinate, or only in the same genus?
