Very showy, Agapanthus Twister (African Lily) is a compact, clump-forming perennial boasting 6-8 in. wide (15-20 cm) umbels of bicolored flowers with deep blue throats and white petal tips. They sit atop tall, slender stalks that arise from a lush clump of strap-like, dark green leaves. Featuring a nice compact habit, this gorgeous bicolored 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.
• Bloom time is variable, depending on the local climate and water availability, but this plant usually blooms from mid to late summer.
• Easy to grow, pest and disease free, this African Lily grows up to 20 in. tall (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.
