Agapanthus Lily

Last year the restaurant that Sam and I worked for closed. When they closed, we asked the owners for some of the plants that were around and gladly brought home plenty of agapanthus. We planted them along our front driveway and then waited. And waited... And waited... To no avail to see any blooms last year.

With all of the recent rain that we have received, it looks like the agapanthus (Lily of the Nile) is finally waking up! A few weeks ago, the first little bud shot up and just this morning, I noticed that the blossoms were starting to open up! The little blue clusters were just eating up the afternoon sun when I got home from work and I snapped up this beautiful picture!
