It's surprising what a difference a few showers of rain can make........
















The agapanthus are almost out in full bloom.....

Re: Flower pics.......


It's always a joy to see pics of your lovely garden and baskets! Gorgeous colors. I love the orange geraniums in the first shot; mine haven't bloomed yet (started them from seed a bit late); also the agapanthus. Mine hasn't shown a bud stalk yet ....???

Did your agapanthus flower last year Eileen? The buds on mine started appearing at the beginning of June...

Yes, lovely bloom last year, It has made a second bulb, perhaps it put all its energy in that rather than in flowering. A shame, as it's such a gorgeous blue.

I suppose there is still time, if not you can look forward to maybe an extra bloom next year...

Re: Flower pics.......


Mine has not even got a flower stalk this year, yet it bloomed last year, maybe its because I did leave it in the garden during the winter, usually put it in the greenhouse...

Re: Flower pics.......


My tubers are about 8 years old and had been growing in a container until last year when I split them and planted them directly into the ground. I did cover them in wood chips last winter though...
