Do agapanthus spread

Also known by more common names such as Lily of the Nile and African Lily, agapanthus is a genus of seven species of perennial plants with bell-shaped vibrant flowers.

They are native to South Africa and do well in zones 7-10. They tend to bloom for up to six months, from early summer until fall in shades of blue, pink, purple, and white often with a darker center stripe on each petal.

Planting agapanthus in the ground

Flowers bloom on tall stalks, and leaves spread out wide and long from the base. The leaves can be evergreen or deciduous depending on the variety and dark to light green, gray-green, or blue-green in color.

Agapanthus blooms are easy to care for and have a wide array of landscaping uses, from filling garden beds to bordering yards.

These plants also attract hummingbirds, are excellent cut flowers and many are deer and rabbit resistant. Agapanthus is toxic for both humans and pets.
