Wow, bachelor buttons are not often seen anymore. There is an anemone in there too, blooming at the same time as agapanthus! . . . or is tha agapanthus blooming at the same time as the anemone?
Hehe – we had to bring them in and judge the best time to get them (separately) into bloom at the same time. I must say, they do work beautifully in this bouquet together!
Well, yes, . . . they just seem to be out of season in one way or another.
Ah I see what you meant – nope, we can both varieties at this time of year with no issues!
Agapanthus are still one of my favorite perennials, even though they are stigmatized as common. I still grow pieces of my first that I got back when I was in junior high school. Because I do not grow them for cut flower crops, they are not scheduled. They bloom naturally in time for the Fourth of July.
