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.

Question on a plant

9 years ago
What is the plant next to the blue Hosta on the right hand side of the photo? I have seen this shrub before, but I don't know what it is. Thank you!

    Hi Allison, thanks for the question. That shrub is Bluebird Hydrangea (Hydrangea serrata 'Bluebird"). Hardy to zone 5, a long bloomer, and will tolerate some shade. It's a wonderful plant, we have been very pleased with it in our designs.

    All the best!

    thanks so much! I thought it was in the hydrangea family but wasn't sure. Our neighbors have a couple and the are quite beautiful and unique.
