Agapanthus Midnight Star | 2 Litre Pot

Deep blue flower clusters. Position: full sun Soil: fertile, moist, well-drained soil (or John Innes no. 3 compost for containers) Rate of growth: average Flowering period: August to September Hardiness: frost hardy (may need protection in winter) This beautiful African lily produces rich and brooding colour in mid to late summer when its rounded heads of deep blue, trumpet shaped flowers erupt from bud. These appear on reasonably tall, upright stems from amongst the strap-shaped, deciduous leaves. A star performer. Garden care: Keep well-watered during the growing season, applying a balanced liquid fertiliser each month from spring to flowering. Towards the end of September ease back on the watering and feeding of plants in containers to allow the foliage to toughen up. In cold, exposed areas protect the crown of the plant with a deep, dry winter mulch.
