Agapanthus ‘White Lily of the Nile’ (1 bulb)

Adding a bright splash to the vibrant summer border, Agapanthus ‘White Lily of the Nile’ is an eye-catching evergreen perennial that grows large (up to 25cm/10″) blooms, packed with over 100 crisp white, trumpet-shaped flowers.

These stunning blooms appear during the summer, throughout July and August, atop stiff upright stems and above clumps of beautiful green, strap-like leaves. They are ideal for planting in great swathes, suiting most garden settings or mixed borders and are excellent as cut flowers or as accent container plants.

Planted between March and May, Agapanthus will thrive in fertile, moist and well-drained soil. In a hot climate area, Agapanthus will do better in partial shade.

Provide moisture during growth, reduce water in autumn and apply mulch for winter protection. Place containers and pots indoors and keep them almost dry and frost-free.
