Product Description
Add a touch of class and elegance to your garden borders and containers with our stunning collection of Agapanthus. Originating from South Africa, these showy flowers produce firework-like blooms in an array of purple and white hues that stand above lance shaped foliage. These beautiful flowers begin to bloom in July and will last through to September, where they can be enjoyed in the garden or used in floral arrangements when cut. Agapanthus are brilliant hardy perennials that will flourish in sunny areas of the garden in well-drained, fertile soil where they will reach an eventual height of up to 90cm. The collection includes five Blue and three each of White and Melbourne (purple-black). First grade loose plants supplied.

Growing at a glance…
To plant loose rooted agapanthus, start by soaking the roots in a bucket of water for 1-2 hours beforehand. Then, dig a hole in the border that’s big enough to house the root system. If you’re planting them in pots, then fill a large pot halfway with soil, adding the crown of the plant pointing upwards. Ensure the crown is just below the soil. Water well once planted. Loose rooted agapanthus should be planted in spring directly into the garden somewhere that gets plenty of sunshine.
