“Find time to grow Agapanthus”

Agapanthus are wonderful tropical looking plants with their strong architectural flowers held high above their lush strappy foliage. Agapanthus are either evergreen plants or deciduous.
The general rule of thumb is, if they are deciduous varieties they are hardy plants. If they are evergreen varieties then they tend to be less hardy and will need some winter protection from frosts.
The large spherical flower heads, made up of individual trumpet like florets, make a perfect back drop for Pelargoniums.
All our Agapanthus are grown in 2 litre pots and can only be purchased by visiting the nursery.
