Re: Tony Avent in NYTimes

Agapanthus is big here, too, Cyndi, but it doesn't bloom anywhere near as much as it does in California. Must be that the Lily of the Nile doesn't care for humidity or warm nights or Florida Kultchur. ;)

Thanks for posting that article.
He cracked me up with the comment about agapanthus and kniphofia. I've been
growing both of those for years. I happily admit to tacky and gaudy
tendencies with my plants - subtle foliage tucked discreetly in small
spaces, with flowers you need a magnifying glass to appreciate, is NOT my
style!
