Agapanthus (“Lily of the Nile”) is a genus of flower plants with six to ten species depending on how the different species are classified. They are all herbaceous perennial plants native to South Africa. They have been placed either in the family Alliaceae, or separated into their own monogeneric family Agapanthaceae (e.g. Indices Nominum Supragenericorum Plantarum Vascularium). Members of the genus have funnel-shaped flowers, in varying shades of blue colors with white flowering forms occurring. ~Wikipedia / / FZ20 Panasonic

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Christmas Bells Christmas Bell (Blandfordia grandiflora) Blandfordia...After the Marquis of Blandford / grandiflora....large flowered Found in coastal areas of central and northern New South Wales and south-east Queensland. Blandfordia is a small genus of 4 species all confined to south-eastern Australia. They are slow-growing, grass-like plants with narrow leaves and bell-shaped flowers produced on stems arising from the centre of the clump. All are commonly known as “Christmas bells” as they generally flower in December-January. B.grandiflora is the most robust of the 4 species. It is usually found in wet coastal heaths on sandy soils. The tubular flowers occur in groups of 6 or more on stems about 30-60 cm long. The flowers are quite large being up to 50 mm long and flared towards to tip. Typically the flowers are red with a yellow tip but forms with all yellow flowers are also known. The flowers contain nectar and a frequented by honey eating birds. After flowering, seeds are produced in papery pods. The seeds ripen about 3 months after flowering. This is a popular plant in cultivation although it is very slow growing and easily “swamped” by more vigourous plants. It requires moist, well drained soils preferably of a light texture such as sandy loam. It appreciates some protection from full sun but should not be grown in heavy shade. It is tolerant of at least moderate frosts. It is very suitable for growing in pots.

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Telopea speciosissima Telopea speciosissima (meaning “very handsome”) – Also known as the “Waratah” is the floral emblem of New South Wales and is one of Australia’s best known and most spectacular native plants. It occurs in a semi-circle around Sydney extending from around Ulladulla in the south to Lake Macquarie in the north and west to the higher parts of the Blue Mountains, New South Wales. The family Proteaceae is a very ancient, widespread family occurring in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, South America and eastern Asia. It contains about 75 genera of which 44 are endemic to Australia. Canon PowerShot A650 IS / 12.1MP – 6x Optical Zoom – 4x Digital Zoom
Propagation of Telopea species: Telopea can be grown from cuttings but the more usual way is from seed (although selected varieties and cultivars must be propagated from cuttings if they are to remain true to form). Fresh seed has a high viability and germinates in 2-3 weeks after sowing. Plants should be potted up as soon as they are large enough to handle and grown in a sheltered position. When selecting a plant for planting into the garden ensure that it is at least 15 cms tall. Plants of this size should have a noticeable swelling at the base of the stem where it enters the soil. This ‘swollen’ tissue is a lignotuber and it contains numerous dormant buds. When established in the ground old canes can be cut right back to the lignotuber which will promptly sprout new stems. This is an evolutionary adaptation to some of the extremes of the Telopea environment (particularly bushfire) which ensures the plant’s survival. This photo was taken at Leura in the Blue Mountains of NSW.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Osteospermum plants originate from South Africa and the name is derived from the Greek osteon (= bone) and Latin spermum (= seed). Osteospermums belong to the daisy family ( Compositae / Asteraceae), hence their common names: African Daisy or South African Daisy, Cape Daisy and Blue-eyed Daisy. There are about 50 species, native to Africa, 35 species in southern Africa, and southwestern Arabia. They are half-hardy perennials or subshrubs. Therefore they do not survive outdoor wintry conditions, but there is still a wide range of hardiness.
