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.

dwarf bearded purple iris- pic

17 years ago

Can someone name this? I was told it's heirloom and predates 1900's.

It blooms at 6 inches tall and is the first bearded iris to bloom in my zone 5 garden. It is done blooming now.

thx!

Karen
