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.

'empty' iris buds

17 years ago

I have several clumps of bearded irises that have bloome faithfully for the past several years. This year there were very few blooms, and several of the iris formed buds that seemed like empty husks. I suspect there is an insect or disease. Any ideas? Thanks.
