You have some beautiful Bloom,s Sharon.
I like them all but the Agapanthus I think may be my favorite.

Wonderful blooms, I especially like the Bobbert bloom.  Your Pink Tiger is lovely. I'm partial to lilies.

Lovely flowers Sharon especially the white and blue agapanthus. The tiger lily is so pretty and I'd love to be able to smell that gorgeous gardenia.

Gorgeous Sharon! I saw a Gardenia like yours at the Garden Center the other day. It was marked "SOLD", but I couldn't resist sniffing the bloom...amazing scent! I love your Agapanthus too

All so pretty, esp the agapanthus.
Bobbert is very very handsome!
I like the pink tiger lilly. I wonder, does it grow like the orange tiger lillies that grow all over the place here? I have a lot of the orange type -- I was just thinking that some pink ones mixed in would be pretty. I will have to watch for some.

Thanks everyone, and yes Droopy, the Bobbert bloom is my favorite too.
Daisybeans, the pink Tiger Lily, grows exactly like the orange, maybe not quite as large, but then my soil is not the best.
Sjoerd, all of the roses are doing ok. None of them are spectacular once again due to the poor soil. I amend as much as I can. I may be forced to buy some bedding mix a little at a time.
