Description

Breathtaking! Agapanthus Blue bursts into summer with bold, architectural blooms in vivid, Mediterranean blue, guaranteed to turn heads. Towering flower stems rise above graceful, strap-like foliage, adding height, drama and structure to your garden.

Season after season, this African Lily puts on a truly spectacular show with very little input. It thrives in UK gardens, it's fully hardy, and once established, it's incredibly drought tolerant. Whether you plant it into a decorative container or pop it into your borders, it settles in and takes care of itself.

The blooms appear in midsummer, and even once the petals fade, the seed heads continue to add interest and form. What's more, the foliage is neat, compact and a lovely feature in its own right, acting as the perfect foil for summer bedding or contrasting perennials.

Top Tips
You will often get more flowers when the roots are restricted, so definitely a plant that does better in a pot (plus it can be moved out of the worst of the winter weather).
Care Information
  • Feed with a general-purpose fertiliser monthly from spring until flowering, then, from the end of September reduce watering and feeding to allow the foliage to harden.
  • In colder parts of the UK, cover the crown of the plant with a deep, dry mulch to protect the plants from hard frosts, or grow in a pot so they can be overwintered in an unheated greenhouse.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
