Agapanthus 'Polar Ice' (Lily of the Nile)
£6.89
Unit price perEstimated Delivery between January 10 and January 12.
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.

Arrived quickly and well-packaged. Planted them in some pots on the patio and they all came up. Look beautiful. Thank you!

The bulbs arrived beautifully packaged and you could just tell they were excellent quality. We had the most wonderful display of daffodils this spring on our patio. Simply stunning. Will definitely be ordering again

I ordered the mixed hyacinth collection and the scent in my garden this April was absolutely heavenly. Every single bulb produced a strong, beautiful flower and the colours were stunning together. A fantastic purchase, I'll be back for more next year!
