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.

Fast growing shade vine for window box?

11 years ago

Hi there!

I have 3 windows in my apartment that directly face my neighbor's windows (oh, the joys of city living!). I was thinking about installing window boxes with trellises attached to perhaps grow a beautiful privacy screen. Does anyone know of a fast growing full shade climber? Preferably perennial?
