My first agapanthus


My first agapanthus (Agapanthus africanus (African blue lily))

2 July 2010.
I planted loads of agapanthus this year
but only one flowered :(
Still, better than having none :-)

Hun, at least yours flowered, mine leaf and that's about it! Looking good though!

It's a big disappointment when we see no flowers on any plants :(
I was so gutted and frustrated that I bought a big pot of agapanthus on Sunday at a car boot sale, having 20 or so flower clumps. Hehehe~~~~!!
Hope they were purple, not white :)

Wow! That would have been expensive in a GC! Hope they are the colour you were after!

Yeahhhh. Prices of agapanthus in GCs are outrageous; can't afford it even though they have flowers and beautiful.
The woman at the car boot sale wanted 15 pounds for that
but we paid 12 in the end :)

Then you still got a bargain by the sound of it, my friend~good haggling! LOL!

Yeah~~~ My H did the haggling part; he offered 10 but that was too cheeky. Good buy anyway ~~~ Hahaha~~~!!!

Hi Tommymoo....love all the pics....making use of all the stone makes sense, we had loads at our old house, from old barns etc, and I put it to good use....
My White Agapanthus, is in bud, fingers x it does actually flower, I had nothing last year, and do so like the white....

Hi Crissue!
Thanks for the comment!
I'm really glad you love all my photos :)
Let's hope both of our agapanthus will have loads of flowers next year :D
