Description
Agapanthus is commonly known as "Lily of the Nile" ('African lily' in the UK); but it is not a lily and all of the species are native to South Africa, from the Cape of Good Hope to the Limpopo River. A truly beautiful flower with balls of small, purple florets such as the ones pictured here.

Liz, Today I paid a surprise visit to your gallery and went to The Beauty of Flowers Gallery and fav and voted on all 23 fantastic images. It was difficult but this one I chose as my favorite out of all of the great ones I saw, some I have already commented on as I recognized them as I was going through your gallery. Love the great details in the pedals of this lily on the inside and outside and how you have managed to capture the bud with such amazing clarity. Great capture in general of the details and the great purple colored lilies. Excellent job at blurring out the background so that the main subject of the viewer would stay on the flower in the foreground. Excellent photo, fav, voted and google and tweet promoted. Look forward to returning to another of your galleries for a surprise visit
