"This is a book to go to bed with, to hug, to sniff, to take dancing around the room in an ecstasy of unfulfilled desire." *

African Lily against the Pump House




Wikipedia:
+ Agapanthus africanus (African lily or Lily-of-the-Nile; syn. Agapanthus umbellatus) is a member of the family Alliaceae and a native of the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa.

+ Several cultivars are known, such as 'Albus' (with white flowers), 'Sapphire' (dark blue flowers), 'Aureus' (leaves striped with yellow), and 'Variegatus' (leaves almost entirely white with a few green bands). There are also double-flowered and larger- and smaller-flowered cultivars.

+ During the summer they require plenty of water and are very effective on the margins of lakes or by running streams, where they thrive. They may be propagated from offsets or by dividing the rootstock in early spring or autumn.
