Agapanthus Headbourne/Palmer hybrids

The toughest of all Agapanthus, but being seed raised, can be quite variable.  Mainly deep blue but do exhibit a range of flower size and height.                  July/August 18-30" tall.  

Planting instructions;

For a sunny site, not too dry.  Plant the crown 3" deep, 9-12" apart.  If in pots, water regularly.  Agapanthus are the blue summer stars for any sunny garden. With South African origins they are all sun lovers, but they would be used to summer rainfall so we suggest they will do better where they aren't too dry. Hence lots of organic matter in the soil to hold the moisture will pay dividends. From division (as these will be) it does sometimes take a while for an Agapanthus crown to flower well again, so expect better flowers in the second year. The bigger forms need planting about 15" apart. To get a more immediately full effect you might cram them in rather tighter together in pots.
