Re: Garden today


You may remember that I couldn't find one last year; they were sold out on every site I checked. So ordered early this season and have a lovely healthy looking one which is just sitting there looking handsome and showing no signs of a bud shoot.

"Your" fuchsia is showing buds....

Re: Garden today


My agapanthus usually flowered in July ........once you see the bud start, it seems to shoot up very quickly.

Glad your fuchsia is in bud Eileen, looking forward to seeing a pic of it in bloom..

I'm hoping once it has established itself again, it will flower next year.
Surprise, surprise!!!! I have a bud on the agapanthus!! I honestly didn't expect to see one this year, if ever again, after the way I mutilated the poor plant.. At the moment it's about 2" tall and looking healthy!

Re: Garden today
