Agapanthus are South African plants with strap-like leaves and showy flowers in shades of blue, violet or white. They're ideal for growing in containers, from which their pretty blooms stand tall, spilling over other pots.

Agapanthus 'Blueberry Cream' was launched by Hoyland Nursey at the RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show 2014. It's thought to be the first truly hardy agapanthus with bicoloured, blue and white flowers. For best results grow Agapanthus 'Blueberry Cream' in a sheltered, sunny spot, in moist but well-drained soil.
