Agapanthus Golden Drop 140MM

Agapanthus x hybrid 'Golden Drop'

I am Agapanthus Golden Drop. My family originated from South Africa.

Habit Strappy - Golden edged foliage

Plant family Amaryllidaceae

I am a beautiful, variegated Agapanthus having bright green foliage with golden yellow edges. My blooms are sky blue appearing in spring and summer on upright stems. I am hardy, I am resistant to disease, heat, humidity and frost. I am a great choice for borders, edging paths and driveways. I perform well in pots and container planting. I work great when mass planted creating an impressive display. I am very low maintenance but removing my spent blooms will improve my appearance and encourage repeat flowering. I bloom best in full sun but tolerate shade. I am a long lived cut flower.

Caution: Harmful if eaten. Skin and eye irritant.

I am popular and will make you happy because...

My bright golden edged foliage and compact habit is a great way to brighten rockeries or borders

I perform well in pots or containers and a great way brighten to patios and paved areas

My bright blue flowers during spring and summer can be cut to be enjoyed indoors
