Nothing too exciting, but we've got tropical milkweed, which blooms all year.

tarev said:Finally my dwarf agapanthus is starting to bloom. Been waiting for awhile, have seen lots of agapanthus blooming their hearts out all over already.

Not too generous this year for my plants, I usually get about 10 stalks..anyhow two stalks better than none Big Grin My area is getting too shaded by the city trees, I think that is making it harder to produce more blooms.

If a plant looks good, smells good, don't eat it, grow it!
