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 Bittersweet

20 years ago

I am an avid reader of these boards, rarely a poster, but after doing some research I still can't find an answer to my question...so here goes!

I have two American Bittersweet vines that are finishing up their second summer in my yard. They were quite small when planted and are now about 5 feet tall. Problem is that they never bloomed either summer, let alone bear fruit.

Does anyone know if it takes a while for them to bloom, or did I get bum plants?

Thanks very much!
