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.

Wild Cherry Shrub?

10 years ago
last modified: 10 years ago

Any idea what exactly this "cherry" shrub found growing wild in DFW is?

If it is indeed a cherry, I thought it might be a Barbados cherry
- but those apparently have 3 fluted seeds per fruit. Whereas this
cherry only had a single (unfluted) pit - and was also extremely sour, btw...
