Agapanthus praecox subsp. praecox - Agapanthus Large Blue, Large Blue Lily of the Nile Seeds

Description

A lily-like plant native to South Africa’s southwestern Cape Province that forms clusters of straplike, light green leaves that give rise to long-stalked inflorescences that hold a globe of countless, lily-like flowers at the tip. In cultivation it does well in a range of temperate climates in USDA Zones 7 to 10. This cultivar is larger in all parts, with the typical blue flowers. It is evergreen in milder climates but will lose its leaves in colder winters. Plants in cultivation are usually incorrectly sold under the name A. africanus.
