These everbearing ones have tons of flowers so they seem to be living up to their name. The runners are growing at a fair rate too. I can highly recommend them
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I'm glad you like my agapanthus. They have been in the same pots for five years (they do much better when tightly packed) and improve every time they flower. I feed them regularly in the Summer then let them dry in the garage, cut off their leaves, dampen them about once a month - and off they go again in the Spring!
Thanks for those tips Berkley, mine are new this year and planted in the border, 2 out of 3 have flowered but only 1 flower each. Mi am digging them out when they have finished and putting them in a pot, all 3 in one big-ish pot (small enough to keep them compact and be lifted but big enough so they can grow a bit).
Thanks BM - I have to agree, but still not my kinda plant. I think I got it free a few yrs ago and each year when I see new buds appearing from the corm I feel obliged to pot it up. Will probably outlast me

Wow that was a bargain
I have heard of dobies garden centres but we don't have them around here, we are all Wyevale
half the dahlias are flourishing, half are rubbish-things that make you go hmmmm?
the variegated basil doesnt flower so its perfect all season
FG, at the moment, each morning I go out to forage from my 2 plants for 2 or 3 strawberries for breakfast with red gooseberries and Greek yoghurt
Very satisfying art!

Weeks and weeks of pleasure!

Catherine, that hollyhock is amazing, sure to grow to be a winner
OL, ah, agapantha, it was the way the plants had that frill of leaves and so many blooms (thought it wasn't an aster, lol)
Berkley, thank you for that info. Mine are
only a year old, no flowers, and can see that they will have to go into one pot to get such a good show of flowers as yours.
What wonderful stars we have
I'm not really a fan of big and blousey but have to say it's doing it's bit-
this is more my style - Agastache Black Adder-
