In South Africa the Christmas garden flower –
what is picked in great bundles to arrange around the baby in a manger in our
churches – is Agapanthus. Somewhat
looked down on as commonorgarden, easy maintenance around office buildings. I
love that colour and that the stalks stand high and Proudly South African. My
version of the blue globes of Allium flowerheads.
