Commonly known as the African lily (or the lily of the Nile in Britain) and the flower of love, the Agapanthus is native to southern Africa.
These star-shaped flowers grow mainly in shady areas where it’s protected from the heat of the African sun. As its name suggests, the Agapanthus has been a symbol of love for many years.
Agapanthus is a genus comprising around 10 species[1] of perennials in the Amaryllidaceae family.
African lily has round clusters of funnel-shaped, brightly colored, showy purple flowers on its slender and tall stem. Some species have thick, belt-like leaves, while others have grassy blades. The long-stemmed firm agapanthus is available in several colors.
Mostly blue, but white varieties are also common. Agapanthus grows to heights of just 8 inches (20 cm) up to 6 feet (1.8 m) for taller varieties.
