We are accustomed to seeing colourful displays which often startle us with their range of plants but this week really does seem to shine on all levels - a superb show. I hope all the growers are pleased with themselves - I would expect they are  :)

Funny to see Crocosmias flowering in the NH when they are in full flight here.

I had Agapanthus Tinkerbell for several years before losing it this winter.  It never, ever flowered but was a nice foliage plant.  I wonder if anyone ever flowered it?

Brian ,

I had luck in this year with Agapanthus Tinkerbell  ;D
