After several bad years when our big clump of Agapanthus only had 3 or 4 flowers this year so far we have 18 buds or flowers - they're not as big as the ones on Scilly but since we found them hiding under loads of undergrowth when we bought the house they're OK

    Lovely colours. What a great season you've had. We're looking forward to Spring here. Daffodils are starting to bloom.
    Hope you have recovered from the dental treatment. Lots of repair work as we get older:(
    Have a good day. Betty

    I've yet to pluck up courage to go to the dentist ! Sorry not been on here for a bit, hols to Scilly and then Kefalonia, but now back home. Yes our Agapanthus is flowering but it looks so puny compared to the lovely big ones on Scilly. We were thinking of giving it a feed for next year to see if that helpped.

      Hi Gaynor, sorry I haven't managed to find your IOS photos - but you might find me now I've changed it to Aroundperranuthnoe Blog.
      I've been trying hard to keep off facebook, but needed to join to be able to see my beloved Ospreys on the Dyffi in Wales.
      Hope you had a super holiday - ours seems a long time ago !
      I really did mean to gave our Agapanthus a feed using the hoze feeder since it's such a big clump - but I kept forgetting - not done much in the garden this Summer got 8 palms to re-pot - I'm sure that Robert our 4 hours every other week gardner must think I'm lazy ! Sue

    OK I've requested you accept me as a friend on the Facebook site, so let me knnow if you can get into mine.
    Both holidays were amazing this year. IOS because of the wonderful weather with calm, smooth waters and Kef for the amazing heat and turquoise WARM seas so we could go snorkelling.
    Nice to be back and already of thinking of our next hol. Who wants to work?! :~

      Managed it ! - Super photos Gaynor - both holidays look stunning - but as you say the warmer waters do make a difference ! Don't know how everyone managed without wetsuits - all the kids wear them - but perhaps that's a fashion statement down here !
      I'm trying my best to stay off facebook as the blog takes so much of my time- I've only "friended" 3 people and it's running amok already !

    I know why people in the UK wear wetsuits... I used to scuba dive off the coast here and it is freezing.
    I thought I had put some pics of the Perranuthnoe trip on facebook, but \\i've checked and hadn't appologies for that. I really must pluck up courage to create my own blogspot.
