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.

ID for a couple tall bearded iris

9 years ago

These iris have been in the garden since at least the early '80s; they came with the house, so I haven't a clue what varieties they are.

There are two different heights of this one, the tall ones are about 30" and the shorter ones are more like 26":


This one is about 26", as well:

(Now I wish I'd taken another picture of this one before the rain that didn't have two flowers practically on top of one another ...)


Please disregard the dratted creeping bellflower infesting the pretty purple iris.


Thanks!
