    Not apaganthus. Sorry. These are Allium schoenoprasum, common garden chives. Having baked potatoes tonight? Yummy!

    Related to agapanthus? Well...in general, sort of. They're both in the same family, but are not close relatives. Sort of distant cousins. Chives are related to onions and garlic. Yummy. I wasn't kidding about the baked potato. Same chives you buy in the store.
