Re: Agapanthus

Talking about "early bloomers", we went for a walk round on Sunday morning to get to know the immediate area of our new abode and I noticed one garden had daffodils and snap dragons in full bloom.

My daughter sent me a photo of her mysterious late Agapanthus bud today.

She didn't protect it at all throughout all the storms and drop in temperature, just let it do its own thing.

Today .......



..... it's still looking healthy!

Re: Agapanthus

That is amazing Mags. Defying nature. I can tell that her garden is lovingly tended. Perhaps that's the result of all that love!

Re: Agapanthus

Gosh, I am surprised Mags. Does your daughter live in Oz?

Is it in the ground or a pot?

It's minus 1 here tonight already.

Re: Agapanthus

I see a lot of the damn things on my morning walks, not fond of them as I say.
