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.

Finally a Bloom...

7 years ago

I bought this purple iris at the native plant sale last Spring, this is the first time it's bloomed. I have it in my small water feature. Look at the very top of the tallest spike on the right.

    I love flag irises! So pretty! When I lived further south, there were blue and yellow growing in a ditch in front of an RV park nearby. I always wanted to go dig some and put them into the swale behind my house, but there was really nowhere to park to get to them.
