African Lily

Agapanthus Pinocchio

• Position: full sun or dappled shade
• Soil: fertile, moist, well-drained soil
• Rate of growth: average
• Flowering period: July and August
• Flower colour: blue
• Hardiness: half hardy, will need winter protection
  
  Open clusters of pale blue bells with paler centres top upright stems from mid to late summer - and may even last into autum. This is a compact form, which is ideal for pots and containers. The glossy, strap shaped leaves will die back in the winter, but look interesting throughout the summer.
  
  
• Garden care: Apply a balanced liquid fertiliser monthly throughout the growing season. Keep reasonably dry during the winter and protect the crowns with a dry mulch in the autumn.
  
  Divide plants that have become too big in spring, but remember you will often get more flowers when the roots are constricted.
