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.

Shrub ID help

10 years ago

This was planted by a previous owner next to an outside door. PO's always planted beneficial plants so I would hate to just cut this down without learning about it first. Having said that I have been trimming this down each year now because of how big it can get.


If let to grow it will get tons of little berries that turn black.





Sends up multiple stems. The larger on the right was an oak or something I let grow by accident (leaf of it in bottom right).
