Description:
Agapanthus praecox Blue is a perennial plant known for its striking clusters of blue flowers and its ability to thrive in various garden settings. Commonly referred to as Blue Agapanthus, it features long, strap-like leaves that form a basal rosette, from which tall flower stalks emerge. The flower stalks bear large spherical umbels composed of numerous trumpet-shaped blue flowers. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well-drained soil. Often used in borders, mass plantings, or as a container plant. Great for erosion control and as a fire retardant. Grows to approx. 60-120cm H x 30-90cm W.
