Agapanthus Brilliant Blue (9cm)

Agapanthus Brilliant Blue (9cm) Description

Agapanthus Brilliant Blue, as the name suggests, is an excellent cut flower plant that blooms brilliant blue flowers throughout the summer. This hardy variety is native to Africa, thus sometimes also known as the African Lily. Its perfect compact growing habit makes it ideal for container gardening. It presents prolific flowering that will attract bees and butterflies, creating a lush summer display in your garden.

Agapanthus blooms trumpet-shaped, intense blue flowers that are soothing to the eyes and mind. These flowers are produced upon upright stems from June to August.

Lush green strap-like leaves form a clump in the centre that gives a dense look to the plant base. This dense foliage can make the perfect ground cover when grown in groups. In winters, the narrow leaves will die back to the ground, only to rise again in spring.

Plant African Lily in full sun as it is a plant that creates a stunning performance that suits full sunlight. It will grow equally well in semi-shaded areas, but only if planted in a well-drained soil. These are hardy plants but may still require a layer of mulch to cover the base in winter.
