This is called a volenteer. Volenteers either stick beside the plant, or TAKE OVER the plant, which is prabably what happend to tha agapanthus. We used to have agapanthus' border our walkway in the front yard of our old house. Now in the front yard of our new house, we have one. Sometimes seeds from all over the place come to volenteer. they're like weeds. You could keep them or get rid of them. The next time you go gardening there, look closely at the root (eend of the stem) of the plant. if you see to roots, follow the one that leads to those icky flowers (or have your parents do it). The weed or other plant probably took over the agapanthus. just pull out the correct roots (not the agapanthus's) and you're good to go for next year. Unless, the plant took over the agapanthus COMPLETLY and you have to take out all the roots and plant a new one. Sometimes you should do that to be safe, but the worst case is that you will have to plant another one, which isn't that bad!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-4039771058844885522010-07-01T12:04:42.529-07:002010-07-01T12:04:42.529-07:00I have a black thumb.

A local arboretum or botanical garden should have some on staff. I am sooo not a green thumb. I've never heard of or even seen that plant before.
