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.

Cut back crown of thorns

6 years ago

I have a COF that’s about 4 foot tall and is getting unstable and too tall for the location. It’s just one tall “stem”. Can I just cut this back to the desired height and it will then regrow from there? .
