Agapanthus ‘Peter Pan’ is a compact, evergreen agapanthus, suitable for small gardens and pots. It forms a tight clump of strap-shaped leaves, from which a mass of tall stems of sky-blue umbels appear in summer. On closer inspection, each trumpet-shaped flower has dark blue stripes. An extremely attractive cultivar, it works well in a number of situations and looks good with other colourful herbaceous perennials such as crocosmia and knipfofia.
Grow Agapanthus ‘Peter Pan’ in well-drained soil in a sheltered spot in full sun. Deadhead spent blooms to prolong flowering. Divide and replant congested clumps in spring.
