Description

Agapanthus africanus 'Peter Pan' is a dwarf perennial that produces globes of light blue, funnel-shaped blooms on upright stalks. Agapanthus 'Peter Pan' is short and sweet. Also known as Lily of the Nile, these bulbous plants have long, narrow strap-shaped leaves and clusters of tubular flowers borne on single stems that arise from the base.

Agapanthus seem to enjoy being a little pot-bound. For this reason, they thrive and bloom profusely in containers. These plants are only semi-hardy in our zone (Zone 7a in Virginia).

Agapanthus africanus prefers full sun and moist, well-drained soil, but is drought tolerant. Agapanthus 'Peter Pan' is great for containers. Attractive to hummingbirds. Deer and rabbit resistant.
