the Feature Garden where I spent more time exploring was the Palace Rose Garden. It was in full bloom, with a mixture of standard, bush and weeping roses.
The Rose Garden here, I learned, is a popular venue for weddings. My daughter had been invited to her friend's wedding there that summer. How romantic, I thought.
Summer also brought with her hosts of blue, indigo-purple and white agapanthus or
African Lily. The name agapanthus comes from the Greek agap (love) and anthos (flower).
It is most appropriate for a wedding to be held in the midst of these Flowers of Love, I would
say.

@ Bangchik - I've bought an agapanthus plant in Malaysia before, but didn't manage to save the bulb for a second round of flowering. Our climate is way too hot.
