Agapanthus ‘Polar Ice’ brings crisp, white flower heads to summer borders and containers, offering a clean, modern look that pairs beautifully with grasses, salvias, and Mediterranean-style planting.

This clump-forming perennial produces upright stems topped with rounded umbels of trumpet-shaped blooms, creating strong vertical accents and reliable colour through the warmest part of the year.

Plant in full sun in fertile, moist but well-drained soil. A warm, sheltered position is best, and agapanthus also performs superbly in containers where drainage can be carefully controlled.

Water regularly during active growth and feed in summer to support flowering. In colder areas, mulch the crown in winter or move containers under cover, then remove spent stems after flowering.

Excellent for pots, sunny borders, and cutting gardens, ‘Polar Ice’ provides pollinators with nectar and brings long-lasting, architectural interest to outdoor spaces from midsummer into early autumn.

Agapanthus africanus 'Dokter Brouwer' brings generous drumstick heads of blue‑lilac trumpets above neat, strap-shaped foliage in midsummer. It’s a simple way to add structure and cool colour to sunny borders, gravel gardens and large patio pots.

This variety stays compact enough for containers, yet still feels architectural. Plant it in a warm, sheltered spot and you’ll get sturdy stems that hold their shape in wind and rain, giving you weeks of colour and a lovely cut‑flower option.

Agapanthus enjoy sun and a fertile, moisture-retentive soil that drains freely. In pots, use a loam-based compost and avoid overpotting—slightly snug roots often encourage better flowering. Try pairing with ornamental grasses, salvias or lavender for an effortless summer look. Once established it copes well with short dry spells, but flowers best with regular moisture.

Water well while the plant is establishing, then keep it evenly moist through summer, especially in containers. Feed monthly with a high‑potassium fertiliser and remove spent flower heads if you’d like a tidier display. The nectar-rich blooms are also a magnet for bees.

In colder areas, give evergreen agapanthus extra winter protection: mulch the crown, wrap containers, or move pots to a frost-free place until spring. Divide crowded clumps in spring to refresh growth and create new plants for other parts of the garden.
