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.

Is this a weed? Vegetable? Flower?

9 years ago


I have this growing in a few spots. Husband says it's a vegetable but it's flowering. It's unruly and the stalks are thorny and sharp. It has these squiggly vines that are spiral and wrap around other plants
