The Big Bang
Bold and architectural, agapanthus bring colour, excitement and a touch of the exotic in high-summer. Brilliant blue and occasionally white, their flower-heads erupt above lush, strap-like foliage, bursting from papery sheaths to create starbursts of multi-floreted blooms which flourish for six weeks or more. Select early-, mid- and late-flowering varieties, from an abundance of cultivars, and you can enjoy a summer-long show.
Use agapanthus to bring bolts of saturated colour to traditional herbaceous borders, or they can be threaded through grasses
