My first taste of free plants via the internet...
Freecycler: These are rather well established white Agapanthus in clay dirt. You dig - you take - I am grateful :) I am putting in some bare root fruit vines and need the space soon. (If I'm going to water it, I want to eat it). I don't want to see my husband send them to the dump. Please rescue them...
OMFG: I would love to grab your Agapanthus if they are still available. Hate the blue ones, love the white ones. I couldn't do it until Tues, though.
Freecycler: Still got plenty of them. Give me a call before driving by. They will need to be dug up but the dirt is pretty wet right now.
45 minutes of digging in a downpour = 24 square feet of white Agapanthus bulbs.
Former neighbor and accomplished poet from our days in Berkeley: Hated it, like many Californians, for being "too common".
Lady exiting the Logan Airport florist cradling three cellophane-wrapped blue stems in the middle of a Boston winter: Obviously loved it.
Claude Monet: Admired the blue variety, especially for shade planting.
I'll side with the airport lady and Monet for now, although it may take me a while to come around to preferring the blue over the white.
