A popular variety, Agapanthus 'Midnight Star' (African Lily) is a deciduous perennial with large, rounded clusters of midnight blue, trumpet-shaped flowers from mid to late summer. They rise on stiff, upright stalks atop clumps of beautiful, narrowly strap-shaped leaves. This compact Agapanthus is very suitable for perennial borders or container planting on the balcony, terrace, or patio.

• Recipient of the prestigious Award of Garden Merit of the Royal Horticultural Society.
• Easy to grow, pest and disease free, this African Lily grows up to 32 in. tall (80 cm) and 20 in. spread (50 cm).
• Thrives in full sun in fertile, moist, and well-drained soil. In a hot climate area, Agapanthus will do better in partial shade. Bear in mind that most varieties will lean toward the sun, which makes a south-facing border the best location. Do not allow plants to dry out except when dormant.
• Spectacular when planted in great swathes, this Agapanthus fits most garden settings or mixed borders, makes a fantastic accent plant in containers, and has excellent cut flowers! A great choice for coastal areas as African Lilies cope well with windy and salty air.
• Deer and rabbit resistant, it attracts butterflies, bees, and birds.
• In late fall remove or tidy up any remaining leaves, but seedheads can be left as they look attractive over winter.
• Propagate by division every three to four years in spring.
• Agapanthus is native to Southern Africa.
• African Lilies are poisonous and should not be consumed by humans and pets.
