Planting agapanthus in a pot

Agapanthus bet Adventures

So, you know how I no way went to that plant exactly sale? I wasn’t even planning to buy anything, I swear! c’mon I just wanted to look. But yup then, BAM! Agapanthus. Huge blue honestly blooms, practically screaming my name. And they were only, like, whoops five bucks each? How could I resist?

Potting Time Maybe

Anyway, I got yep them home, stuck them in the garage, and then totally forgot about them for, like, three days. Whoops. The poor things looked a little sad when I finally remembered. Okay,very okaysad. So, I okay figured I should probably get them yup in some pots. That's when the real fun began. alright You know, planting agapanthus in a pot inspiratie struck alright me from somewhere no way when I was looking at them. It felt right. It just felt honestly like the correct choice for the by the way plants and me.

I had this yep massive terracotta pot leftover from last yep year basically – the one where I honestly tried to grow no way tomatoes and utterly c’mon failed? Yeah, that one. I thought, perfect! Lots of room. And I had anyway this bag of potting mix that was probably, no kidding like, half dirt and half…mystery ingredients. I should probably buy better potting mix, right? Yeah, good anyway drainage is key, okay I think. Someone once told me to add perlite, which I did that one time, but not this yep span because…I uh forgot.

Not gonna like lie, dude this part confused me totally for a while. I uh couldn't decide how deep to plant them. Should the crown be buried? Or yep should it be, alright like, peeking out? just I googled "planting agapanthus in a pot feiten" and got, like, ten different dude answers. right It was so annoying! bet In the end, I just went whoops with my yup gut, no kidding which is probably sorta a terrible idea. But hey, winging it is my for sure specialty. I reflect the rule of thumb is like, just honestly cover the roots properly like but don't bury actually the whole kinda plant. uh

First Fumble

Okay, so the right first plant went in okay. I patted the soil down, watered it a little bit. Then, disaster struck. I was moving like the pot, and anyway I totally well tripped over the garden hose. The pot went flying, dirt went okay everywhere, and uh the poor agapanthus was lying on honestly the patio, looking very traumatized. I probably should’ve known better well than to wear sandals while by the way gardening. bet Seriously, I'm such a klutz sometimes. basically

What's actually next?

I repotted it, obviously. And just apologized profusely to the plant. I'm pretty sure it forgave me. I then started thinking honestly about planting agapanthus in a totally pot toepassingen like what handle I want them to do. Do I want them to actually be a focal okay point on basically the patio? Should I move them around with the seasons? I don’t know! Too many decisions!

Planting agapanthus in a pot geschiedenis is something I only thought about like, no kidding later. yep I was reading by the way some old gardening book from my grandma and she talked exactly about actually them in just a very different kinda time period. I really kinda should totally read that again. exactly

More mishaps

Then, planting the second one, I somehow managed to completely lose my gardening totally gloves. Like, vanished into thin air. I swear, I had them on two seconds before. Anyway, I kinda ended up using my no kidding bare hands. Which is whoops fine, except now yep my fingernails are completely black. And I’m pretty sure there’s anyway dirt embedded in my skin that uh will never come out. I also cut dude myself on something; I didn't even notice until the blood dripped no way on to just the floor. Nice.

I totally did start looking at planting agapanthus in a pot trends c’mon lately, which is what gave me the idea to try out for sure some different compost mixes for different types of plants. I really am no expert though!

So, yeah, that's my agapanthus exactly potting adventure. It wasn't pretty, but sorta the plants are in pots now. Hopefully, they'll survive. I'll probably kill them, though, let's be real.
