Agapanthus "Fireworks"

Agapanthus  "Fireworks"
This one is in a large pot in my front garden..........it currently has 21 flower heads. Apparently they like to have their roots restricted, so grow better in pots. The bees love it..!!

It's so beautiful Keith! Your picture is so perfectly focused! The colours and sharpness are super. Someone in your house has green fingers! This is right up there as one of my favourite flower pictures!!

I hope you are managing to keep cool Keith! Take care!!

I can take no credit for the gardening Rosa...........that's all down to Jackie...........but I'll happily take credit for the photo. Thank you so much.

Keeping cool is a bit of a struggle at the moment (especially at night), but we're doing OK, Hope you and yours are as well.

A wonderful capture but most surprising of all is the fact that you counted all those flower heads.

Keep cool. Herb

Keith Burton club has replied to Herb Riddle club
Thanks Herb...............but I counted the flower heads not the flowerlets! I struggle once I run out of fingers and toes to count on anyway :-))

Keeping cool is a bit of a struggle.........but we're doing OK. Hope you both are too.

Wir haben auch einen Topf mit Agapanthus, dicht an dicht. Die Knollen haben wir von Madeira mitgebracht. Dieses Jahr sind es 14 Blütenköpfe, weiße oder blaue. Deine Pflanzen müssen eine besondere Züchtung sein. Sie sehen wunderschön aus!

Super shot, Keith! I don't think any plant likes to have its roots restricted; it's just that some flower better if they do!
