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.

Purple spikes

11 years ago

I bought three of these at a flea market from a farmer. He was unable to tell me what they were. I thought it was vervain but I don't think so. Can anyone help? They are about 14-16 inches high.
