The bright, white heads of Agapanthus praecox ‘Albiflorus’ look sensational beneath a royal palm, Roystonea regia, while mature pines, Pinus pinea, frame the view out to the Mediterranean. The formal design of this entrance garden, which was laid out in the 1960s, has been refined by replanting the agapanthus beds, which had become congested, and refreshing the soil. Low box edging was replaced with more drought- tolerant Myrsine africana.
