Agapanthus 'Flower of Love' bears large umbels of intense, purple-blue flowers on tall stems over lush free, strap-shaped leaves. It’s a fantastic choice for a tropical border and its colourful blooms work well with other bold colours, such as crocosmia and knipfofia. It also works well in containers. One of the hardier agapanthus, it’s suitable for growing in more northerly regions, although it may need protection in severe winters.

Grow Agapanthus ‘Flower of Love’ in moist but well-drained soil in full sun. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering and divide congested clumps in spring.
