Growing magnificent clusters of starry blue flowers, Agapanthus ‘Blue’ creates a striking display that upon closer inspection reveals a smart streak of dark blue down the centre of each petal. Available as a pack of three tubers, they look beautiful planted to create a dramatic burst of colour.
Also known as ‘African Lily’, the large drumstick head of flowers is perfect for adding structure and height to a mixed floral display and can be paired with a range of plants from rudbeckias for a contrast of colour to a range of ornamental grasses that add movement. They also make a wonderful addition to a container display, adding stunning appeal to patio and seating areas. Towards the end of the season, they can also be left to seed, so you can enjoy its height and graceful silhouette for longer.
Reliable and easy to grow, they will flourish in your garden with minimal care. Simply plant your tubers in a sunny spot, in any soil that is moist but free draining. It will then return year after year, with its wonderful display of colour.
