Agapanthus
Agapanthus are one of the most popular flowering herbaceous ornamentals in South East Queensland, because they are so easy to grow, yet a mass of them in flower can be stunning. The height and drama of the flowers is outstanding. Even without the spectactular flowers, the foliage is very attractive provided it can be kept in good shape.
Everyone is familiar with the common blue and white varieties, but there are a range of sizes and colour variations available in commercially available named cultivars. It's hoped to bring you more information on some of these in future updates of this page. Meanwhile, if you're a nursery breeding or promoting such lines, please get in touch about having your Agapanthus cultivar appear on this page.
More information to come in future updates. In the meantime, check out the links at the bottom of the page:

Places to buy Agapanthus
Agapanthus are widely available in garden centres in Queensland. You will probably find the common white and blue, and possibly some dwarf or other special cultivars currently being promoted.
However, if you are interested in some of the less common cultivars, you may need to seek out nurseries that specialise in this group. Bulb nurseries may be good places to look, too.
