Lily of the Nile (Agapanthus africanus)

Agapanthus africanus, the Lily of the Nile or African Lily, is a stunning, clump-forming perennial that produces tall, elegant flower stalks topped with spectacular, rounded umbels of trumpet-shaped flowers in glorious shades of violet-blue, lavender, and white. The strap-like, dark-green foliage remains attractive year-round even when not in flower. It is extremely tough and drought-tolerant once established, thriving in full sun to partial shade. Outstanding for mass planting, garden borders, large containers, and cutting gardens. Its bold flower display is a truly spectacular seasonal event.
