Hi Heather, they can be lifted and divided but not until Spring, they will die back in the Autumn. If you do need to move them before then try to take as much soil with it so as not to disturbe the roots too much and give it lots of water when you replant it, then keep your fingers crossed that...

that is interesting peter it must be much hardier than i thought :D :D

Hi Heather, These links may help. These are hardy agapanthus in 1st link, they are the shorter ones. http://www.broadleighbulbs.co.uk/plantlistpages/agapanthus.htm This 2nd site is the non hardy, the tall ones click on information & then use the menu on left of page to find out what you...

Thanks Steve, I'm off to sort them out in the greenhouse now. Also kept this on my list of favourites. Didn't know there was such a vast selection of information on these computers. Still a beginner!!!!!!.But with all your members help I am learning fast. and guess what!!!! I have just found...

:D Thanks very much guys :DI did have a lot of stems growing up from the bottom, and looked a bit bush like, but I trimmed them back cos I like to better looking like a tree :DThanks very much for the link Bayleaf :D It's not had any flowers or berries as yet, perhaps in the spring...

lol typical response, I proudly presented Granny with the print-out of your link Bayleaf, and my Gramps says "I told you it was a...." hang on, big word... "persicaria, didn't I?!" :D

but the there wouldn't be mushroom for anything else in the pot!:D

:D Thanks becca & pete, it is a day lilly as you say. It is day lilly "little flirt". Thank you Charlie. :D

Hi Charlie , I have a bush in the garden with flowers like yours & it is, Lavendula angustifolia "folgate". It's flower spikes are longer & more spread out than the "hidcote" & not quite so dark in colour either. Hope that helps. :D p.s. Have to say your quotation is brilliant &...
