- believe that if you can - I'll need to remind myself of that each time I'm in Garden centre!!

Had never heard of a Clivia - had a google - yes, you must have one lol.

I am with you nothing new of the garden this year I want to see whats where and replan.....I have a master plan only thing is need to get the energy to do it. The garden is a mess....was last year and I am kicking myself for not doing it then.

agapanthus is almost a weed here in Australia... you see it in nearly everyones garden... and growing on the sides of the the road... i love the green foliage of it though... and it responds VERY well to our drought conditions.... you could say that it thrives on neglect
