Hi Josie and welcome to Moosey's forum!

Great picture

Seems a shame that the Agapanthus have been deemed a weed, they're lovely flowers. Are they really that vigorous?

My country of origin is Greece, and there, too, some fine plants --like Agapanthus in your city-- are treated with cruelty sometimes : Nerium Oleander, Lantana, Hibiscus Syriakus, Olive Trees, Pelargoniums (:Pot Geraniums), are only some of them... I think , it's really sad: Nature gives us such Beauty in abundance, and we are so ignorant ...

"..So,perhaps, it is easiest, through awareness of flowers in particular, of their radiant beauty and purity, their vibrant colour, to come to the excellence of the One and be uplifted beyond thought to our divine selves".Dorothy Maclean

Hi Jose

Silly council *tut tut* When will they learn that we pay their wages and if we want aggies we should be allowed them

Makes me want to go all rebelious and shake dry aggie heads all over! :wink:

What is really amusing Liza is that the city has aggies planted down the middle of the motorway!

What are you going to plant in the newly cleared area Josie?
