    Berkley, the plants in the pots are such a lovely colour. image I wont even hazard a guess at the name but I can see them in my garden. Are they hardy, half hardy ??

    Bizzie B, I think they are Agapanthus and I absolutely love them, they look beautiful and I'm very jealous Berkley but hopefully mine will look like that next year image

    Beautiful lilies BM and Guernsey Donkey, I love the colour BM and GD, what can I say!!?? Wow, absolutely stunning already and look forward to seeing more pics image

    Look like Agapanthus. image

    The fasciation on plants is a weird quirk of nature isn't it? Someone posted a while ago with the same thing on a lily. I had a bit last year on the white buddleia I inherited here.

    Cracking colour BM. I can smell those form here image

    Just caught up with the posts on previous page so thanks to all those who admired my black background fence. It was a case of necessity more than design. Acres of orange wood is not my favourite thing in a garden....imageimage

    This was my star on Monday. It isn't now - 'cos I ate it yesterday image

     The fruits are the size of small plums - and very tasty!

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

    Oh fairy girl you made me laugh out loud with "cos I ate it!" image

    It looked a beauty image

    Tasted pretty good too BM image 

    I've not had this variety before - hadn't even heard of it -'Everbearing Buddy'. Bought three plants in the bargain corner last September in Dobies. They were £1 each, but the original price was a fiver! I've taken a few runners from them  too.
