Description

This clumping dwarf variety of Agapanthus has green, strap-like, evergreen leaves. Clusters of blue, oval shaped flowers appear in summer on top of stalks, making this plant about 2' tall. This dependable plant can be grown in sun or partial sun. It is drought tolerant in coastal areas but will appreciate occasional watering in inland warm areas, especially during the summer. This perennial attracts butterflies.

Water Saving Tip:

Apply a layer of mulch around plants to reduce moisture loss.

Organic mulches, such as shredded bark, compost or aged sawdust will also break down and improve the soil.
