Hi Sheila,

How are you intending to over-winter your agapanthus seedlings? Bring
them under cover or just keep them in a sheltered place outside? I can't
remember if you said the parent plant was hardy or not; perhaps you didn't
know.

The is hardy in the ground, I didnt mulch it specially. I am going to put
the large pots in the shed this year, as the pot shattered last year, I am
going to put the small pots in my unheated porch, and give them just a drop
of water now and again.

I dont have as many babies as you, as I foolishly gave a lot to friends....
I am going to have to try to get the seed pods from this years plant for
some more!


I will try to remember to take a picture of them tomorrow, last years plant,
in the pot, also the plants in the ground, and the babies
