Agapanthus Collection
M8000
Description
A beautiful, tonal Agapanthus Collection to evoke a feeling of long, summer days spent under the sun, near the coast.
In fresh shades of azure blue, navy and crisp-white, this stunning trio will flower from June until August, bringing fabulous architecture as well as colour to summer containers and borders.
Spear-like, budded stems erupt from strap-like foliage, before breaking open to reveal a stellar display of tiny, trumpet-shaped blooms.
South-African native Agapanthus enjoy full sun and are tolerant of harsh winds. The plants look timeless and elegant grown in traditional terracotta pots, lining pathways and filling deep borders.
Collection of 1 x White Agapanthus and 2 x Blue Agapanthus varieties.
Care Guide
Elegant Agapanthus are best grown in large terracotta pots or containers, in a sunny spot. Fill containers with loam-based soil, enriched with organic matter. Plant rhizomes 20cm deep and 15cm apart, ensuring they rest 5cm below the surface. Maintain soil moisture with regular watering, never allowing soil to become waterlogged. Sturdy stems of spectacular white or blue umbels will reach heights of 60-90cm in late summer. Only re-pot if the plants are pot bound. Half-hardy Agapanthus require crown protection during winter with a thick layer of straw or mulch. In colder regions, containers should be brought undercover for the winter months.
