Dear friends,

I planted several bulbs in a pot in spring.

The label had come off the packaging, so when I planted them I put in a label ... 'SURPRISE, SURPRISE'.

This is the end result and I wonder if anyone could help identify this for me please. Thank you.

NOW IDENTIFIED THANK YOU

Could it be an Agapanthus?

I'd go for Galtonia, [summer hyacinth].

Eileen & Sue, thank you for your thoughts. I wasn't sure about Agapanthus as it is quite different from the other blue ones that we have in the garden... but you could be right. I'll take a look at Galtonia images now. 👍

Thank you Eileen, I have now included a photo of the 'Green-flowered Galtonia' to my question FYI.

I have grown these off an on over the years so I was pretty sure that was what it was.
Glad it turned out to be a correct id.
They are a lovely bulb.
