As children Dad often warned us to be wary of the agapanthus. Fearful of a ferocious beast it was some time before we learned that he was using a play on words. Any way here are some for the back garden just bursting into flower.

Nice series, Bruce.

I've got some agapanthus just flowering here that I've had my eye on to photograph for the past few days, too.

I agree. Nice photos.

Many people love the agapanthus, but it's a real problem in some areas: Councils halt cultivation of Agapanthus plants | Reportage Enviro

Thanks for the info. We have a problem with the traditional white lily going wild in the creeks down here. A lot of Councils still use Agapanthus in mass plantings although I am not sure of the variety used. We have at least 3 different varieties growing at home

Like that blue one a lot. We have some of those. I'll try to get a good shot when they bloom.
