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.

Mary Frances, blue or purple?

9 years ago

I thought this was a blue iris but Schreiners describes it as lavender orchid. How would you describe it?

    definitely not blue. Not purple like Lavender flowers either, sort of a light Lavender
