Patens also known as the ‘Spreading Bell Agapanthus, is a recipient of the much coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, and is a clump forming, tall upright herbaceous perennial with long narrow green strap-like leaves, from which the slender erect stems baring it’s deep blue umbels of flowers appear during late Summer, a splendid addition to the border providing a wonderful display of colour when many plants are beginning to fade.

Looking After Your Agapanthus Campanulatus Patens

Generally pest and disease free, an easy to grow flowering perennial in many if not all locations. A low maintenance perennial which can benefit from a sunny, well drained area in all types of garden from cottage planting schemes to town or court-yard planting. Very little pruning is required, although a general tidy to remove any damaged foliage and apply a good Muti-purpose fertilizer to encourage fresh new growth in early Spring will be beneficial. Propagation by division is best done every three to four years, again during the Spring to keep them looking at their best and increase stock.
