Description

I am a little bored with Swaziland for now but will return with some more images in a couple of days. For tonight I have decided on this simple yet beautiful purple Agapanthus. They are indigenous to South Africa and grow in any conditions - full sun, shade, drought, loads of rain, with love, without love... !!! Not even I can love them to death like I tend to do with so many other plants!!! And they are evergreen... I captured this in my garden one late afternoon and used a flashlight to try and get a special effect. Thanks for your click and for your valued comments abd favs on my previous upload. Take care Hugs, Carin xx

Beautiful shot! We used to call these "angry panthers"... and they grow everywhere in California, once you have one then you have hundreds, and you can't get rid of them. They're pretty when they're flowering!

This is beautiful! We have these plants here too, and in two sizes. The larger ones outgrew their spot in our garden and had to be taken out, but we have more. ;o) I love this color. Excellent capture!
