Description
The Ever Sapphire™ Agapanthus (Agapanthus hybrid ANDbin PP26336) from the Southern Living Plant Collection produces gorgeous globular clusters of trumpet-shaped violet-blue blooms. Expect these flowers to begin appearing in spring and continuing into summer. This variety is semi-evergreen. Therefore warmer USDA Zones will find it to be evergreen, while colder Zones will see it as a deciduous perennial. Its foliage is thick and straplike, with a leathery texture. Additionally, its an attractive bright green hue that goes with just about anything in the landscape or garden. This is a semi-dwarf variety that reaches about 20-24" H x 12-18" W. It has a naturally clumping habit, so it wont take over your garden. However, as with many perennials, divide these perennials every 3-4 years to prevent crowding. Use this as a border plant along a walkway, as an accent in a mixed garden bed, in a container, or as a mass planting. Check out a few other Southern Living Plant Collection Agapanthus varieties, the Neverland Agapanthus, Queen Mum Agapanthus, and the Little Blue Fountain Agapanthus. Ever Sapphire Agapanthus Care Hardy in USDA Zones 8-11, down to 10°F when established. Plant in Part Sun for best results. Water 3-4 times per week during the first growing season. In the second growing season, provide supplementary water in times of extreme heat and drought. The Ever Sapphire Agapanthus prefers garden soil with good drainage for best results. Perennials rarely need supplemental fertilizer, however, 3-4 inches of compost around the plant yearly provides nutrients to keep the plant happy and healthy. How to Plant: Find a suitable planting location based on the planting specifications listed above Remember to leave a room for their clumps to expand. Dig a hole roughly three times as wide as the pot that your plants came in. Dont dig the hole deeper than what will allow for your plant to sit evenly with the ground around it. For slower draining soils, dig a slightly shallower hole so your plant will sit a couple of inches above the soil around it. Mound the soil around the base of the plant. Mix your native soil with some rich garden soil or compost to encourage new root growth and expansion. Place the plant in the hole and backfill around it with your dirt mixture. Water your new planting deeply to settle the soil and hydrate your plant. Now is a good time for a light fertilizer application. If youre planting in mid to late fall or summer, use a root rocket fertilizer. If youre planting in spring or early fall, use a slow-release balanced plant fertilizer. We dont recommend using liquid fertilizer on new plantings.
