Description:
Silver Baby is a compact and hardy, semi-dwarf form of Agapanthus. Reaching a height of just 30cm, the flowers sit nicely just above the foliage at around 50cm. The floral display occurs right throughout the warmer months and the silvery-white blooms are tinged with a subtle hint of pale blue, making them appear far more delicate than they actually are. Silver Baby is a very dry tolerant choice and perfect for hot sunny locations. To add some additional colour interest, plant it alongside a dwarf blue counterpart such as Agapanthus 'Baby Pete'. Grows approx 30cm tall x 40cm wide.
