My mom grew Agapanthas in California. They're pretty plants : )

Have you been smoking the Agapanthas up there in Alaska, Jan?

The subject is Agapanthus. You can't grow them in Alaska. Then again, there
are some deciduous cold hardy species that have been successfully grown
outdoors in Denver you might want to try.

We live in town and we want to know if agapanthus is suitable to grow
around
tree bases, even if the soil is very gravelly. Should we plant just one
agapanthus or several in a group? Please help, Frank

I have no idea, but my favorite "confuse the pilgrims" sign for my
driveway is:
"Beware of the Agapanthas." Most people have absolutely *no* idea what an
agapanthas is, so they're afraid to get out of their car up here at the
house.

(It's going to get worse -- I have a local sculptor working on a
life-sized
triceratops metal sculpture for me. It's going to be poking it's head out
of
the treeline, about 1/4 mile up my driveway. My driveway is 1/2 mile
long.)
